The University of Canberra campus is situated in Bruce, a north-western suburb of Canberra. Academic standards are high and career results are excellent. The University has produced over sixty thousand graduates since 1970. Many now occupy senior positions in the professions, the corporate world and the public service of Australia and several other countries. Others have become prominent writers, journalists, performers and sports men and women. As a university anchored in Australia’s capital, it works with government, business and industry to serve the communities and nation, and to be the capital’s educational window to the world. From this vantage point, UC challenge the status quo in a relentless pursuit of original and better ways to teach, learn, research and add value – locally and internationally. The University’s Sydney Hills campus is only 31 kilometres north west of the Sydney CBD and is linked to excellent transport infrastructure. The area is close to major shopping centres, Castle Towers and Castle Mall, Castle Hill, as well as cafes, restaurants and local shops, which will provide a range of services to support the proposed campus enrolments.Sydney Hills campus is providing exceptional student facilities, equivalent to those at the Bruce campus. These include computer labs, lab spaces, simulated hospital wards and high-tech teaching spaces to meet University course requirements for nursing,” Professor Pratchett said.
