UNSW Canberra graduates shape Australia, the region and the international community as leaders in defence, government and industry.
Working at the intersection of a leading university and a military academy, UNSW has been educating defence leaders for half a century.
The information here is for prospective students. Current students should refer to their relevant UNSW Handbook.
Non-Defence
In 2016 UNSW Canberra opened up admissions for Engineering and Engineering/Science double degrees to non-Defence domestic students*, as well as single-year Honours programs in Arts, Business, Computing and Cyber Security, and Science. Our specialist Engineering degrees (in Aeronautical, Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical) are accredited by Engineers Australia, and incorporate at least 60 days of industrial work experience.This means that if you study with us, you will graduate with a degree from one of Australia’s top universities, and be qualified to begin working immediately as an accredited engineer.
In addition to this, under the Washington Accord, you will also be able to work as an engineer in the US, UK, Canada, Japan, and Southeast Asia.
*Domestic students include Australian Citizens, Permanent Residents of Australia, and New Zealand Citizens.
