About Swinburne

More than 100 years ago Swinburne opened its doors with a simple premise in mind: to provide education to a section of society otherwise denied further education.

More than a century later, Swinburne continues to persevere in its commitment to not only provide, but also transform education through strong industry engagement, social inclusion, a desire to innovate and, above all, a determination to create positive change. An opportunity presents to join Swinburne and be part of a world class university creating social and economic impact, through science, technology and innovation.

The School is committed to delivering excellent education courses, quality research with impact and engagement activities with deep industry connections.
