Want to study somewhere that gives you all the convenience of the city and the charm of the country? Then going to university in Wagga Wagga is your perfect next step.
Nestled in the heart of regional New South Wales (NSW), Wagga Wagga should not be mistaken for your typical 'country town'. Affectionately known as just 'Wagga' by locals, it’s a major regional city and a prominent hub for agriculture, education, military and culture.
About halfway between Melbourne and Sydney, Wagga Wagga’s location lets you enjoy creature comforts and have the ability to go on weekend getaways. Visit the Snowy Mountains and explore the shopping and cultural scene at Canberra. You can also go camping at nearby national parks and reserves.
Charles Sturt Wagga Wagga is our biggest campus, so it makes sense it has a wide range of courses. You can study ag and animal science, health, business, social work or teaching.
