	Introduce the University of New England

I am pleased to welcome and introduce you to the University of New England (UNE) in Armidale, Australia. As one of Australia’s oldest universities, UNE has a 70-year tradition of excellence in teaching, learning and research. Here, you will enjoy the perfect balance between high educational standards and an outstanding lifestyle. In addition, we have established formal links with many overseas institutions and maintain a strong relationship with our alumni.

In 2009 UNE again rated highly in respect of student experience. In the most recent Course Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) 83.4% percentage of students approved of their UNE experience; we achieved an 100% success rate in Citations awarded by the Australian Learning Teaching Council; and in the Good Universities Guide received the top rating for Australian universities for ‘overall satisfaction’ and a five-star rating for students’ ‘educational experience’.


	The University is in the city of Armidale, in the heart of the picturesque New England Tableland region of the State of New South Wales. The New England region is famous for its magnificent gorges, waterfalls and rivers, history and vibrant culture, and for the contrasting beauty of four distinct seasons. Armidale is a regional Australian community that is proud of its multicultural society. The engagement of international students with the wider community is an important aspect of life at UNE, and something we know international students appreciate and applaud.


	UNE is proud of its vigorous research. Staff and students are actively engaged in internationally recognised research across all academic fields. Our scholars and scientists have world-class reputations through their contributions to fields such as rural science, agricultural economics, law, educational administration, linguistics, archaeology, nursing and education. We have also identified a number of research priorities across all academic areas at UNE, and to cement these priorities in the Sciences, UNE is offering Research Priority Scholarships to all international students enrolling in specific postgraduate research programs. UNE understands the importance of a balance between academic pursuits and leisure for students. And so, together, UNE and Armidale offer extensive academic, recreational, sporting, cultural and entertainment opportunities. I highly recommend the University of New England as a place to study, and I assure you that it is a friendly, nurturing environment providing both academic excellence and a truly Australian experience. I look forward to welcoming you to the University of New England.
