Make the most of your time at Sydney
There are many great reasons to study engineering, computer science or project management at the University of Sydney. Whether you’re still in school or taking your next step, see how good your university experience could be.

University life is more than studying hard and attending class. Getting involved in one (or more) of our clubs and societies is a great way to meet new friends with similar interests. They will also prepare you for the workforce by providing networking opportunities and allowing you to develop your leadership and communication skills. Whatever course you choose to study, you’re sure to find a club or society that interests you. 

Below is just a selection of the clubs and societies you could join. For a full list visit the University of Sydney Union website.

Test your skills and abilities against your peers through a bit of friendly competition. Opportunities include:
