As a modern university, our aim is to combine vibrant, inspiring learning environments with world-class facilities, equipment and technology to enable you to gain practical experience and put learning into action.

Western Sydney University is committed to being an institution of international standing and reputation. The University prides itself on developing sustainable international partnerships, sharing knowledge that enriches and strengthens the quality of our research, curriculum and cultural diversity. The University has established a rich portfolio of international partnerships to support innovation, research and education. Our global network includes partnerships with overseas universities and key government agencies, collaborations in research,
articulation pathways, and engagement with global industry.

Our status as one of the top 100 young universities in the world underscores the significant work undertaken to broaden the University’s international horizons. International linkages and internationalisation of the curriculum is helping to develop graduates with a strong sense of global citizenship, an attribute highly valued by employers in an increasingly global environment.

As a relatively young Australian university, Western Sydney University is positioned to continue to grow and adapt to meet the needs of our community. To truly serve our region and further enhance its diversity, the University must continue to build on our international profile.

The University is committed to enhancing the student global mobility program and providing opportunities for students to participate in exchange programs at high quality universities around the world, clinical placements at overseas health care facilities, specialised short-term study experiences, and overseas work placements.

Supported by the Australian Government’s New Colombo Plan initiative to strengthen relationships between Indo-Pacific countries and Australia, our undergraduate students have opportunities for prestigious scholarships and grants for study and internships in the Indo-Pacific region.

The University’s culturally diverse learning environment is enriched by thousands of international students who choose to study with us each year. Connections between local and international students increase cultural understanding and the development of future international networks.

The University provides a welcoming and engaging environment for international students. We use our links with Western Sydney’s multicultural population to grow and enhance our international student community, further strengthening our international profile and connection with the world.
