Facilities @ UNE Tamworth

Based in the Tamworth CBD, UNE Tamworth provides dedicated study spaces, resources and equipment to support UNE students and our local community. Our location features flexible, bookable spaces for community activities, dedicated study areas for students, and staff-friendly spaces.

During weekdays, students and the community can walk in anytime to get assistance with any current student needs, future student  enquiries, or information about our facilities. Our staff are all local community members, and some are students themselves, so they are fully equipped to answer or direct any questions that come their way. Our centre is open to the public during business hours on weekdays, with student access after-hours and on weekends.
