Enquire to study in the UK 
Australia is famous for many things: its unrivalled scenery, cute and fascinating animals like the koala bear, wombat and kangaroo, and of course, delicious coffee. But another feather in its cap is the country’s ability to attract bright minds from all corners of the globe to its world-class universities.
Australia has become a favourite study destination for international students, even overtaking the UK as the world’s second-most popular destination for international students, according to the University College London. And it’s really no surprise, seeing as the country offers a high-class education and a quality lifestyle for all visitors.
Students who are keen to further their undergraduate or postgraduate studies in the Land Down Under may want to consider the University of New England (UNE). One of their campuses is located in Sydney – one of the world’s most liveable cities, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Ranking.
To boot, UNE is the only Australian public university to be awarded the maximum 5 stars for Overall Experience for 13 years in a row by the Good Universities Guide, offering prospective students a plethora of programmes to choose from.

If you have an interest in business, UNE Sydney will be an ideal place for your study.
Undergraduate students interested in business can pursue the Bachelor of Business (Accounting), which instils a firm understanding of business, from small- to large-scale enterprise, and prepares you to be a problem-solver, to adapt to changes in the business landscape, and ensure you’re ready to build your career profile upon graduation.
Conversely, the Bachelor of Business (Finance) will help you to navigate the world of business, focusing on core units related to the finance industries and occupations. You’ll develop skills in creative thinking and critical analysis, corporate and international financial management, banking and finance through to business law. You’ll leave able to develop and lead ethical, social and environmental solutions to meet complex business challenges.
But if business studies aren’t your cup of tea, some of UNE’s other undergraduate courses available in Armidale include agriculture, computer science, law, media and communications, nursing and psychology, among others, so you’re bound to find something to suit your education and career aspirations.

Meanwhile, graduates looking to build their arsenal of skills and enhance their career may want to explore UNE’s postgraduate programmes, which generally involve either coursework or research. For example, UNE’s Master of Information Technology (MIT) provides an opportunity to move into an IT-related career or enhance your current IT qualifications. The MIT has been given professional-level accreditation by the Australian Computer Society – the largest professional body in Australia representing the ICT sector – and, through the Seoul Accord. The MIT is available at both Armidale and Sydney campuses.
Those with a background in software engineering, information systems, information technology or even data science, and are looking to further their expertise in computer science should consider UNE’s Master of Computer Science, where emphasis is placed on the structured design of algorithms for computer-based implementations of real-life tasks.
The interactive execution, analysis and use of programmes are discussed together with advanced algorithmic designs and programming techniques; informal notions of programme specification and verification; a high-level description of the abstract architecture of the von Neumann machine; numerical and non-numerical applications; and social issues. This course gives students an opportunity to gain enhanced knowledge and skills in research.
With the world becoming increasingly connected, a Master of International Business instils students with the key skills needed to be an effective manager in international business.

UNE is also committed to helping busy adults study from anywhere in the world, standing as a pioneer in delivering distance education in Australia, having done so since 1955 – longer than any other Australian university.
