This is the University of Sydney
The University of Sydney was founded in 1850, making it the oldest university in Australia. The public institution is located in Sydney in the southeastern Australian state of New South Wales. In addition to its main location – the Camperdown/Darlington campus – near the city's central business district, the university has other campuses and research facilities in Sydney and other areas of Australia. One of the additional sites is the One Tree Island Research Station located near the Great Barrier Reef, which facilitates research on topics such as climate change and geology. Student accommodations are available at several of the university's campuses. On the Camperdown/Darlington campus, students can live in residential colleges – including the International House – or university-managed apartments and dorms. Tuition costs vary by subject and are higher for international students.The university has 16 academic divisions, including agriculture and environment, arts and social sciences, business, engineering and information technologies, and medicine. English is the language of instruction, and the university’s academic calendar is semester-based. Undergraduate students have the option of applying to the university's one-year, research-focused honors program. Some of the University of Sydney’s more than 70 research centers are the Brain and Mind Centre, the China Studies Centre and the Centre for Carbon, Water and Food. The school has student exchange agreements with roughly 300 universities located all over the world, including the University of British Columbia in Canada, Fudan University in China and Uppsala University in Sweden.
