Your University

The University of New England combines the highest academic standards and industry-valued qualifications with flexible modes of learning and great support to deliver the best learning opportunities for our students.

The University of New England was the first Australian university established outside a capital city. With a history extending back to the 1920s, UNE has a well-earned reputation as one of Australia's great teaching, training and research universities.

Since 1955, teaching off-campus students by distance education has been an important part of the University's activities, and we continue to be one of Australia’s leading providers of education by distance.

Increasingly, the flexibility offered by external study is proving a significant attraction to those pursuing a tertiary education. Our excellence in this area ensures you get the same quality of learning irrespective of where you are.

About three-quarters of UNE students study via the Internet. We do a lot of work to ensure we are at the forefront of online learning and to facilitate online networking between students.

Our excellence in distance education, flexible study options, respected qualifications, great support and continued drive towards providing the best possible student experience makes UNE a ‘must consider’ university for anyone considering study by distance.
