Your University

The University of New England is a friendly, down to earth university where you can get a highly respected qualification from the comfort of home, with plenty of support from a distance education specialist.

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.

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.

About three-quarters of UNE students study via the Internet, and we do a lot of work to ensure we are at the forefront of online learning, and to facilitate online interaction between students so you never feel like you are studying alone.

Our excellence in distance education, flexible study options, respected qualifications, great support and most importantly the ultimate student experience make UNE a ‘must consider’ university for anyone considering honours and potentially higher degree research.
