Swinburne University of Technology

Swinburne University of Technology has been educating students for almost 100 years. In fact, if you join us in 2008 you can take part in our centenary celebrations!   We are a career-oriented institution, where you can gain real-world experience through practical courses. Swinburne has grown into a multi-discipline, multi-campus institution, with six campuses in Melbourne, Australia and one in Sarawak, Malaysia.

Swinburne’s strengths are built around a solid technology base and influential links with industry, plus ground-breaking specialist research centres. We have a flexible and forward-thinking understanding of government, education and business priorities, and are responsive to the changing needs of industry.

As the best university in Melbourne for Teaching Quality and Graduate Satisfaction in The Good Universities Guide 2008, and one of the top three for Research Intensity, Swinburne continues to advance its position as a high-ranking Australian university, dedicated to providing quality education.

A truly international university, Swinburne has developed successful relationships with universities around the world, and established Swinburne University of Technology (Sarawak campus) in Malaysia, in 2000. There is extensive collaborative research and mobility of teaching staff between Swinburne and our partner universities.

Swinburne is the only Australian university invited to be a member of the European Consortium of Innovative Universities (ECIU), which aims to foster student and staff mobility and share innovative programs to give students a competitive edge in today’s global employment market.

In 2006 the Northeastern Study Centre was set up at Swinburne’s Hawthorn campus, under a landmark agreement between Swinburne and Northeastern University (Boston, USA) to offer combined courses.
