Victoria University

Victoria University (VU) is the university of the west.

Victoria University achieved university status in 1991, but our preceding institutions date back to 1916. We are one of Australia’s few dual-sector universities. Today, we have over 40,000 enrolled higher education, and vocational education and training students studying on our campuses.

With 15 research disciplines ranked at or above world standard in the latest Excellence in Research Australia (ERA) assessments, Victoria University offers world-class research opportunities.

Our researchers work across multidisciplinary research focus areas to develop new technologies and solve real-world problems. Research is supported by our partnerships with industry and our research institutes and centres to provide beneficial outcomes to organisations, governments and communities.
