Future UWS staff

The University of Western Sydney (UWS) is a major urban university with six campuses in Greater Western Sydney, a region of great opportunity, diversity, challenge and growth.

The University shares many of the characteristics of the region, as we closely identify and work with local communities and businesses. We are enterprising and forward-looking, committed to access and equity in higher education. We put knowledge to work in the education of our students for employment, in the application of research to contemporary problems, and in mutually enriching partnerships with communities.

The University is culturally diverse, with over 2000 staff and over 35,000 students including more than 5,000 international students every year. We are proud of the rich texture of history, knowledge and skills that the UWS community possesses.

Our University is designed for the knowledge economy of the 21st century where economic growth and social outcomes will depend on the skills of individuals and communities, and where education will be flexible and continually adapt to meet individual needs.

The University is closely linked to Greater Western Sydney, one of the nation's economic powerhouses where ten per cent of all Australians live, and has a teaching and research structure designed to meet the challenges of the new economy. UWS courses are focused on the future. From professional education in vocationally-based disciplines through to critical scholarship in higher degree programs, the University ethos emphasises critical and questioning enquiry and innovation.
