Western Sydney University, formerly known as the University of Western Sydney, is a multi-campus Australian university located in Sydney, Australia’s Greater Western region. Although the university’s origins date back to 1891, the Western Sydney Federal University first came into effect in 1989, and the other colleges banded together to create the university that we now know in 1995. By 2001, the university began to act as a single entity instead of a federation and was created to educate a large and diverse population of the six campuses. With campuses in Bankstown, Blacktown, Campbelltown, Hawkesbury, Liverpool, Parramatta, and Penrith, it is a provider of undergraduate, postgraduate and higher research degrees. The QS World University Rankings ranked the University of Western Sydney as 25th in Australia in 2019, which leads to the university coming 5th in Sydney. It is currently ranked in the world’s top 300 in the 2019 World University Rankings. Western Sydney University is divided into “schools” with different academic faculties. At present, the university has nine schools: the School of Business; School of Computing, Engineering and Mathematics; School of Education; School of Humanities and Communication Arts; School of Law; School of Medicine; School of Nursing and Midwifery; School of Social Sciences and Psychology; School of Science and Health.
