The University of Western Australia (UWA) was established in 1911 as the State's first university. It was also the first free university in the British Empire, actively promoting equal access to tertiary education for all social classes.
The University is home to a number of industry-based research centres and institutes, and is affiliated to many others in Western Australia and across the country.
Recognised as one of the best universities in the country, the University attracts high calibre undergraduate and postgraduate students from Australia and overseas. UWA graduates have consistently been the most successful in gaining full-time employment when compared to graduates from other WA universities and they have matched or exceeded national graduate employment rates.
