Western Sydney University Strategic Plan

WESTERN 2030

Our five year strategy, WESTERN 2030 places students at the centre of everything we do.

We are determined that everyone who wants a world-class education can access one. Education unlocks opportunity, and our students will graduate with the Western Edge. They will stand out for their knowledge and critical thinking skills, but also as adaptable, energetic leaders with industry and digital experience.

Our roadmap ensures that as the region changes, we can continue to serve communities in Western Sydney and increasingly around the world. As a public sector institution, we are partners in delivering a stronger, more prosperous community for all.
