The University of New South Wales (UNSW) is one of Australia's great universities. The main university campus is in Kensington, a suburb of Sydney about 20 minutes by bus from the main central railway station and 30 minutes from the harbor and ferry terminals. It is close to shopping areas, restaurants, beaches and parklands. UNSW is a modern, urban university with extensive sporting and recreational activities to complement its reputation for scholarship and research. The University's host city, Sydney, is the largest, oldest, and perhaps the most beautifully situated city in Australia.
