The University of Newcastle is excited to welcome prospective students to our Newcastle campuses for our first Open Day since 2019. For anyone considering study, this is an opportunity to have a glimpse into what it’s like to be a student at the University of Newcastle.

The hallmark event runs from 9am-3pm, with 3,000 prospective students and community members expected to tour the Callaghan & City campus. Teachers, students, and staff from the University will be on hand to give you an overview of the courses offered on campus and campus tours will help prospective students to get a feel for life at the University. Creative Industries Students will showcase their talents with live performances and food and activities will be available.

Key features of the Open Day include:
