The University of Tasmania is a public research university, primarily located in Tasmania, Australia. Founded in 1890, it is Australia's fourth oldest university. The university offers various undergraduate and graduate programs in a range of disciplines and has links with 20 specialist research institutes and cooperative research centers. Its Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies has strongly contributed to the university's multiple 5 rating scores (well above world standard) for excellence in research awarded by the Australian Research Council. The university also delivers tertiary education at the Australian Maritime College, the national center for maritime education, training, and research.

Working together, we’ve become certified carbon neutral, divested from fossil fuels, and are recognized as the world's leading university on climate action. We see sustainability as an opportunity across everything we do at our university, so there are many ways to explore your passion for sustainability beyond what you study.
