The University of Newcastle offers international students the perfect combination of lifestyle and learning. Set in superb bushland and close to spectacular beaches, waterways and forests, the campuses of the University are well known for their academic excellence and innovative teaching.

The University of Newcastle hosts more than 20,000 students studying Bachelor, Master and Doctoral (PhD) programs across a wide variety of disciplines, including: architecture and building; arts and humanities; business; commerce; design; economics; education; engineering; fine arts; food technology; health sciences; law; management; mathematics; medicine; music; nursing; science; and social science.

The University is also known worldwide for its problem-based learning programs. Used mainly in the disciplines of architecture, building, health sciences, medicine, and nursing, problem-based learning places students in small groups where they solve problems they are likely to face in their working lives. In other words, it gives a purpose to learning.

The University of Newcastle at Callaghan boasts one of the best campuses in Australia. Its 120 hectares (300 acres) of natural bushland - complete with Australian wildlife - at the city's edge offers you peace and quiet: the perfect prerequisites for successful study.

Similarly, the Central Coast campus, nestled in a bush hillside, offers a tranquil environment. Modern facilities are set in an intimate campus layout.

Both campuses have facilities to match their setting: well-stocked libraries, student clubs, shops, cafes, sports facilities, modern lecture theatres and laboratories.
