塔斯馬尼亞大學

The university continually invests in new resources and developments in order to give students the best platform to succeed. As such, students can expect ongoing improvements to the facilities offered while they are studying in Tasmania.

A new multi-million-dollar campus transformation project has now begun, which will create attractive and distinctive new southern and northern campuses. These will have brand new buildings, facilities and infrastructure all tailored towards the future of education, guaranteeing students a wonderful place to live and learn.

The university continues to undertake a range of research projects that will improve the lives of both the local and international community. Almost 97 per cent of university research is rated at above world standards, with AUD 114 million of research income generated in 2020 and 400 research partners across a range of industries.

Graduate prospects

Students who graduate from the University of Tasmania will be well placed for their future career. Recent figures show that 93 percent of graduates were in full-time employment three years after they had completed their degree.

University of Tasmania graduates have a median full-time salary of AUD 91,300, which is AUD 4,100 more than the national median salary.

To help students achieve success there are a number of career support services, which help to connect students with employers through placements and provide them with the essential skills needed for applying for work.

Students who choose to enrol at the University of Tasmania are ensured of a high-quality experience. This is reinforced by the excellent graduate success ratings, with 94 per cent of students finding full-time work within three years of completing their studies.

The university doesn't rely on these figures though, and has instigated a Quality Matters program to ensure that all courses meet the expected standards of education. This helps course leaders to prepare effective, professional units of study that give students the most valuable information in an effective way.

Students will learn from experts in their field who have undergone extensive training both within the area of study and in how to present and deliver their knowledge to students. There is also access to extensive support services should students need extra academic help, or if they need to raise a concern about their course quality.

The university offers a wide choice of generalist and specialist degrees at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Options of double degrees, degrees by coursework or research, internships, studying abroad and exchange, and a breadth of subjects give students the flexibility to customise their study experience to their individual needs.

The university also offers English and foundation studies programmes. These help students who have not met the English or academic entry requirements to gain the necessary skills to progress onto a programme of study with the institution.

There are four colleges, which cover the major disciplines:

• College of Arts, Law and Education
• College of Health and Medicine
• College of Sciences and Engineering
• College of Business and Economics

The colleges house a number of research centres and schools. The university is also home to four global-leading institutes that teach niche programmes and conduct cutting-edge research:

• Australian Maritime College (AMC)
• Institute for Marine & Antarctic Studies (IMAS)
• Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture (TIA)
• Menzies Institute for Medical Research

Students wishing to study with the University of Tasmania must meet the minimum English language and academic entry requirements. Some courses will have higher requirements for either English language or for previous academic qualifications, and some may require a portfolio of previous work or an interview.

Standard academic requirements

Admission to the university's undergraduate courses requires completion of qualifications equivalent to Year 12 in Australia. Some courses also require the completion of prerequisite subjects. Students who do not meet these requirements may enrol in the Foundations Studies Program.

Entry into a postgraduate course requires the equivalent of a bachelor's degree with the required grades. Work experience may be required or used for alternative entry for some undergraduate and postgraduate courses.

Scholarships & Funding

The university has a range of scholarships for international students commencing their studies in 2025.

These scholarships are designed to help support students with the costs of student living, giving students the best platform for success as they focus on their studies and not on the worries of affording the university costs.

Scholarships are available to those who need financial aid or those who seek recognition for their academic excellence and achievements. Students can also apply for funding to help with relocation or the costs of learning English.

International students are able to apply for their course and any relevant scholarships at the same time.

Students can learn more about the range of scholarships offered by the university, and details on how to apply along with any relevant deadlines, on the website.

Across the University of Tasmania's campuses, students will benefit from contemporary facilities with every resource needed to give them success.
