Location
The main campus of 85 acres is in Sydney, 20 minutes from the city centre and the airport, and within walking distance of Coogee Beach. The surrounding suburb is called Kensington, which is why the main campus is often referred to as the Kensington campus. The Paddington campus is a short shuttle bus ride from the main campus. |
