Collaboration and impact is at the heart of UNSW Science

UNSW talks about the impact of science differently. We talk about it in the context of collaboration. Tangible real-world impact happens when partners work together to solve real-world problems. And UNSW Science has the expertise, experience and a track record to make that impact happen. With our students. With our alumni. With our donors. With our industry and government partners. With our communities across Australia and around the globe, we are making a difference, together.

The UNSW Science 2035 Strategy is a blueprint for what matters to us and what makes us distinctive, particularly our ambition to contribute meaningfully to global societal challenges through science. Our strategy is built on the strengths of our unique mix of Schools and our capabilities across fundamental and applied science.
