Which university to
choose: The Australian network of
universities
Choosing to do a university course is an important decision
in your life. When making this decision Universities Australia believes that you should consider the full range of
universities available.
Although this might make the process of decision-making more
difficult, there are advantages for both students and universities.
Your options as a student are expanded. Instead of having to
choose from only one or two courses in your preferred field, you will have a
full range of courses to consider. This means you can pick out the ones that
best meet your needs and interests. It will also encourage you to have a
broader outlook about yourself in an Australian and global society.
For universities, having students from interstate allows
them to offer diverse and specialised courses in a greater number of areas.
Specialised courses which otherwise would only attract a small number of
home-state students can continue to flourish with increased numbers of
interstate students. In a world which is increasingly global in its perspective
it is important for universities to have a mix of students that reflects the
diversity of Australia and to a lesser extent the world. This provides the
right structural foundation for a system which is truly international in its
focus.
