Why study here?


Success through collaboration


Macquarie University is engaged with the real and often complex challenges and opportunities that define our lives. Since our foundation in 1964, we’ve aspired to be a different type of university: one unbound by ivory towers and sandstone walls. Rather, we’re focused on fostering collaboration with learners, academics, industry and society to advance world-class theoretical thinking that translates into real-world solutions.

We’re ranked among the top one per cent of universities in the world and recognised for producing graduates who are among the most sought-after professionals in the world. Our pioneering approach, based on a connected learning community, sets us apart from other universities – and you apart from other graduates. As a microcredential participant, you’re considered a partner and co-creator in your learning experience.

We enjoy an enviable reputation for research excellence – 100 per cent of our research is rated at world standard or above, and six of our researchers are ranked in the top one per cent of researchers in the world. And three of our subjects are ranked among the top 50 globally and 11 are ranked among the top 100.

We’re uniquely located in the heart of Australia’s largest high-tech precinct – more than 300 leading companies are located on or around our 126-hectare campus. More than AU$1 billion has been invested in our facilities and infrastructure, ensuring our learners and staff can thrive on a campus that is dynamic, sustainable and built for collaboration.
