  • Electrical, telecommunications and quantum engineers continue to be among the most sought-after professionals. Electrical Engineering continues to feature in lists of the best, highest-paying or most in-demand jobs, e.g., Indeed (27/2/20) and Forbes (17/5/19).

  • Academic staff in the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications are passionate educators. 30% of academic staff won faculty, university or national teaching awards in the past 10 years. The School has a proud history of education innovation. Two recent examples are the world’s first Bachelor of Quantum Engineering and (during COVID) a breakthrough way to deliver practical skills via remote laboratories. Many courses have undergone digital uplift, providing world-class learning resources to complement class interactions.

  • Our vibrant and award-winning student societies STEEP (LinkedIn) and TWEET (web and facebook) run dozens of social events, ‘crash courses’, hackathons and careers events throughout the year.

  • The recently refurbished ($104M), award-winning Electrical Engineering Building, with thousands of square metres of brand new teaching and research labs, the Real-time Digital Simulation Laboratory, the largest in any university world-wide, the Australian National Fabrication Facility, capable of producing sub-20nm semiconductor device features, the Joint National Fibre Facility, to name just a few.

    Take a tour of some of our teaching labs (including for quantum engineering), and have a look at our world-leading remote laboratories, which bring the lab bench to our students wherever they are during COVID.

    • Engineers crack 58-year-old puzzle on way to quantum breakthrough
    • New ARC Research Hub for Integrated Energy Storage Solutions focuses on transition towards sustainable, reliable, secure and cost-effective energy
    • UNSW Sydney researchers attract $1.3 million investment for cyber security spin-out
    • Thought control technology is coming out of science fiction and into real life
    • Plan to Mine the Moon Gives Australia Opening in New Space Era
    • Uni labs testing limits of quantum communications
    • Smartphone app to screen for early signs of dementia
    • Researchers Propose Floating Microgrids Made up of Electric Boats
    • Hot qubits made in Sydney break one of the biggest constraints to practical quantum computers
