UC is a university for the professions, dedicated to providing immersive student experiences focussed on employability outcomes. In 2023, more than 17,500 students (11,700+ in undergraduate & 5900+ in postgraduate) from across Australia and 100 countries study in the diverse community and vibrant campus. It has been ranked in the top 5 universities in the world for reducing inequalities (THE Impact Rankings 2023), 5th in Australia in the worldwide Times Higher Education Young Universities Rankings 2023 and placed number one in the ACT for full-time employment and social equity (GUG 2024). These are remarkable achievements for a young university only three decades in operation. This success is in part due to the two-pronged focus, encompassing progressive teaching and learning, as well as strong ties to industry. The latter means that students enjoy real-world work experience, internships and clinical placements meaning UC students get a taste for their future careers, even before graduation.
