This disciplinary excellence is representative of a strong research culture across all UTAS faculties, schools and institutes. With campuses located in Hobart, Launceston, Cradle Coast, Sydney and offshore, UTAS offers a vibrant and international experience, with students and staff enjoying a strongly supported academic environment, outstanding campus facilities and social and cultural activities.
