UNE was formed in 1938 as the New England University College, a College of the University of Sydney. The University became fully independent in 1954 and pioneered teaching to external students by correspondence, making UNE Australia's most experienced provider of distance and now online education.
Their aim is to offer you the most flexible study options without losing any of the rigour required in a quality tertiary education. You can study on campus for a traditional face-to-face education experience, or from wherever you are; our new generation of online study is making tertiary education more accessible than ever.
UNE’s research is benchmarked against international quality standards. This is assessed independently, through a national research evaluation program conducted every three years by the Australian Research Council, called Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA).
