| The University of Tasmania is nationally and internationally renowned as a center for academic excellence. Founded in 1890, it is the fourth oldest university in Australia and is a vibrant educational institution that combines long traditions of academic excellence with the energy and dynamism of exciting educational offerings.
The University has over 13,000 students offering both undergraduate and post-graduate programs of study. The four key areas of specialization which together form the University's 'badge of distinction' are Natural Environment and Wilderness Management, National and State Development (Agriculture, Aquaculture, Forestry, Mining and Tourism), Population and Community Studies, Antarctic and Southern Ocean Studies, Indigenous Studies and Fine Arts.
The University of Tasmania is a popular destination for students who are seeking a unique experience where the population and friendly atmosphere create an environment in which they can easily immerse themselves in the culture and make friends with the locals. It seems that nearly every time you walk into a coffee shop or cafe, someone will ask you where you're from and how you came to Tasmania. Visitors to "Tassie"(as locals like to refer to their island state) are not just tourists; they are very special guests who are welcomed with open arms.
