one of the world’s
best cities
The business capital of Australia
Sydney is home to more global firms than any other Australian
city. A gateway to Asian economies, the city attracts great
minds and is known for its ideal climate, relaxed outdoor
lifestyle, and friendly locals. It’s no wonder Sydney was voted
the 10th-best city in the world to live and work.*

UNSW is in the leafy Eastern Suburbs, minutes
away from Coogee Beach and Centennial Park. The
surrounding suburbs of Kingsford, Randwick, and
Maroubra are full of cafes and restaurants offering an
impressive range of international cuisine, reflecting the
area’s diversity.

Outside Sydney
Catch a train to the Blue Mountains for some fresh air,
go north or south along the coast for quiet and stunning
beaches, or head inland for Australian rural life. And you
can always take a plane to Melbourne, the Gold Coast,
New Zealand, or Bali, just like the locals.

World-class performances, spectacular events, and stunning
landscapes await you in a city where there is as much to do at
