Why choose UTS College

At UTS College, you’ll benefit from a special combination of ongoing academic support, small class sizes and practical learning, designed to help you realise your full potential and give you the ultimate thrive factor at UTS.

Study a UTS College diploma and when you successfully complete your studies you'll receive guaranteed entry* to the corresponding UTS undergraduate degree. In fact, most of our diplomas will take you straight into the second year of your UTS degree. So you're not wasting any time at all! Choose from diplomas in the areas of business, communication, design & architecture, engineering, information technology or science.

Whether you’re an international student adjusting to a new education system, or an Australian student seeking additional support, we want you to thrive while studying with us. That’s why we’ve designed a robust framework of support services tailored specifically to meet the needs of every student.

All support services are freely accessible to all UTS College students, and include our Learning Support Program, one-on-one tutorials, study skills workshops, and full-time dedicated Study Success Advisers.

Plus, our classes are kept small – with no more than 20 students in one tutorial, giving you a more personalised learning experience. 

Our diploma courses are designed in collaboration with UTS. This means the educational outcomes for diploma students are the same as for first year students studying a UTS undergraduate degree. So you're getting the same world-class university standards right from day one of your studies.

Plus all academic students have access to world-class facilities at UTS, including the library,  24 hour computer labs and hundreds of student clubs and associations. 

At UTS College we don’t just teach you course subjects, our teaching model focuses on life-long learning skills. This means small classes, formative assessments, more face-to-face hours and an emphasis on collaboration in and outside the classroom. So you can evolve and adapt to challenges and opportunities not just for today, but in the future.
