Western Sydney University is a research institution driven by impact.

We believe that excellent research and practical outcomes are essential parts of our overarching research mission. Our research has real impact upon the social, economic and environmental wellbeing of our regional, national and international communities.

The University invites outstanding graduate researchers, innovative new generation researchers and established researchers to consider joining or collaborating with us.

Within the University there are disciplines and specialisations but outside the University there are real challenges that cross over these distinctions. Research at Western Sydney University is organised into four multidisciplinary research themes. Our research themes speak to the history and culture of the University and its communities, providing a shared vision for their future.
