Although its origins are said to trace back to the 1870s, the university was founded in its current form in 1988. As of 2018, UTS enrolls 45,930 students, including 33,070 undergraduate and 12,860 postgraduate students through its 9 faculties and schools.[3] The university is regarded as one of the world's leading young universities (under 50 years old), ranked 1st in Australia and 10th in the world by the 2019 QS World University Rankings.[4] UTS is a member of the Australian Technology Network, the Association of Southeast Asian Institutions of Higher Learning and the Association of Commonwealth Universities. HistoryThe University of Technology Sydney originates from the Sydney Mechanics' School of Arts (the oldest continuously running Mechanics' Institute in Australia), which was established in 1833.[5] In the 1870s, the School formed the Workingman's College, which was later taken over by the NSW government to form, in 1882, the Sydney Technical College.[1] In 1940 the NSW Parliament passed an Act to establish an Institute of Technology, which in 1964 led to the establishment of the New South Wales Institute of Technology (NSWIT). In 1968, the NSW Institute of Technology amalgamated with the NSW Institute of Business Studies. In 1976 NSWIT established the first law school in NSW outside the university sector. The Haymarket campus officially opened in 1985. On 8 October 1987 university status was granted to NSWIT, which was followed by the passing of the University of Technology, Sydney, Act 1987. It was reconstituted as the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in 1988, along with the incorporation of the School of Design of the former Sydney College of the Arts. In 1989, the University of Technology, Sydney, Act 1989 (NSW) formed UTS by absorbing the Kuring-gai College of Advanced Education (KCAE) and the Institute of Technical and Adult Teacher Education (ITATE ) of the Sydney College of Advanced Education. An academic Structure of nine faculties and 25 schools was established in 1991. The School of Design was initially housed at a campus in Balmain, which closed at the end of 1994, with the school moved to a new building at the city campus.[6][7] The environmental, biological and biomedical science schools were located on a campus at St Leonards, which was closed in 2006, which also relocated to the city campus following a redevelopment.[8][9] The Kuring-Gai campus closed at the end of 2015, with classes and facilities moved into the main Haymarket campus. This marked the consolidation of UTS into a single unified campus in the Sydney CBD.[10] CampusThe UTS campus is located in Ultimo, Sydney, and consists of five precincts – Broadway, Haymarket, Blackfriars, Moore Park and Botany. The campus is home to the faculties of Science, Health, Arts and Social Sciences, Engineering and IT, Design, Architecture and Building, Business and Law, as well as the Graduate School of Health. The university is in the final stages of completing a $1 billion-plus infrastructure investment program to reshape its campus.[11] UTS Central, currently under construction on Broadway, is transforming the old Building 2 site into a student hub and new home for the Faculty of Law. ArchitectureThe University of Technology Sydney's campus buildings are a mix of architectural styles, reflecting the different periods in which the buildings and grounds were constructed and refurbished. The UTS Tower on Broadway (Building 1) is an example of brutalist architecture with square and block concrete designs. In October 2006, the UTS Tower was voted the ugliest building in Sydney in a poll hosted by The Sydney Morning Herald, receiving 22% of the total vote.[12] At the Haymarket precinct, Building 5 combines a modern interior within the remaining exterior of the old markets building, while nearby, the Dr Chau Chak Wing Building (Building 8), designed by celebrated architect Frank Gehry, is considered a contemporary architectural icon. Other notable buildings on campus include Building 10 on Jones St – the old Fairfax building – and its neighbours, the Faculty of Engineering and IT (Building 11) on Broadway and the new Faculty of Science Building (Building 7) overlooking Alumni Green.
