Introduction :

At the University of Newcastle, our vision is to be a world-leading university for our regions. We strive to deliver an exceptional student experience, preparing graduates to be ready for life in an increasingly interconnected society. Our research focuses on the issues and opportunities relevant to the future of our regions and our world. Across our campuses in Newcastle, the Central Coast, Port Macquarie, Sydney and Singapore, the University of Newcastle enrols more than 37,000 students from diverse backgrounds. We focus on Equity in higher education and on developing the next generation of socially-oriented leaders, entrepreneurs and innovators. We are the number 1 university in Australia for Indigenous enrolments and have a 5-star rating for social equity (Good Universities Guide, 2020). Our University has long been known as a champion of innovative approaches to education. We strive for a dynamic teaching culture that delivers world-class educational outcomes. As competition for the best and brightest students increases, our long history of offering innovative, problem-based learning across our programs means we are poised to meet the education challenge. We are also a research-intensive university and proud of the great things we have achieved in collaboration with our partners in industry, business, government and the community - here and around the world. Our sights are set firmly on the future as we work hard to build our research capacity and maintain our position as a competitive destination for the world's best researchers and global innovation leaders. The significance of our research is reflected in the Australian Government's Excellence in Research Australia assessment, which awarded the University the highest possible '5' rating across 30 research fields, placing us in the top 8 Australian universities for research quality 'well above world standard. We’re ranked 9th in Australia for research income across the sector (HERDC) (The Audited Higher Education Research Data Collection returns 2018) and 1st for industry collaboration.
