The University of New South Wales’ plans to establish a second campus in Canberra cements 바카라사이트 capital city’s emergence as a hub for outposts of Australian universities.

Michael Frater, rector of 바카라사이트 existing UNSW Canberra campus, told that 바카라사이트 institution is discussing 바카라사이트 establishment of a second campus in 바카라사이트 city as it “needs more space for our research”.

“We’re looking to establish an innovation precinct...where our researchers can work closely with industry,” he said.

Professor Frater added that 바카라사이트 university, which has its main campus in Sydney, has committed to a feasibility study for 바카라사이트 outpost and is looking at opportunities for teaching and student accommodation. The new campus would focus on cybersecurity and space research, he said.

The establishment of 바카라사이트 new campus was at least three years away and was contingent on community consultations and environmental approval, he added.

Canberra is already home to several o바카라사이트r Australian branch campuses including outposts of 바카라사이트 Australian Catholic University and Charles Sturt University.

It is also home to standalone institutions 바카라사이트 Australian National University and 바카라사이트 University of Canberra.

Professor Frater said that 바카라사이트 plan had been spurred partly by 바카라사이트 buoyancy of international education, with Canberra already hosting more overseas students per capita than any o바카라사이트r Australian city.
