Welcome to the University of Tasmania Sandy Bay! Located on Grosvenor Street in Sandy Bay, Australia, our institution is not just a place for studying, but also a hub for connecting with new people and engaging in various activities. From events and sports to volunteering opportunities, there are countless ways to meet like-minded individuals and make lasting connections.

Our institution takes great pride in its research excellence, which has a profound impact on Tasmania and beyond. We prioritize forming deep connections, not only among our students and faculty but also with local industries, schools, and the entire community that calls our island home.

One of our standout achievements is our commitment to climate action.

We are leading the way in tackling climate change and making a positive difference in the world.

But it's not just our dedication to the environment that sets us apart. Our degree programs offer a global perspective on the big issues, preparing students like Gemma Rushton, who chose to study a Bachelor of Natural Environment and Wilderness in one of the world's most incredible environments. With Tasmania's stunning landscapes and outdoor opportunities, we turn everyone into an outdoors person, just like Upadhya Anjalie Balachandra, who was drawn to Tasmania for its unique offerings and even took up surfing.

Tasmania is known for its renewable energy and hydroelectricity, and as the only university in the state, our students have unparalleled access to industry connections and opportunities. Bunfu Yu, for example, graduated with a Master of Planning and won a national award in the Outstanding Student Project category. Our commitment to providing a quality education to as many Tasmanians as possible drives us to transform our university and ensure a bright future for all.

At the University of Tasmania Sandy Bay, we offer a range of events and lectures that enrich the learning experience.
