Award Winning Academic Programs
We were awarded Australia's University of the Year in 2000-2001 for "Preparing graduates for the e-world" (Good Universities Guides). We offer access to state-of-the-art facilities including computer laboratories and online access to enrol in subjects, and access subject results.
We were also awarded Australia's University of the Year in 1999-2000 for "Outstanding research & development relationships" (Good Universities Guides).
Innovation
UOW is also the driving force behind Illawarra's planned Innovation Campus - a research, development and technology facility, which will cement Wollongong's future as a designated Centre for Excellence in IT&T.
The University is working in partnership with the State Government and other stakeholders to develop a home for Australia's most visionary IT, communications, film, television and multimedia companies.
The iC is a 15 year development involving research, commercial and educational buildings.
Feasibility studies conducted during the master planning process identified the need to develop the campus over distinct stages. The first four stages have been plotted and the campus will move to the next phase as demand and the building program develop.
