University of Tasmania (UTAS) Update

The University of Tasmania will again run the Schools Recommendation Program for grade 12 students to apply to UTAS and receive early offers for university places. Applications will open on May 31 and close on October 31 with multiple times when offers are made. Grade 12 students will be supported in this process through Career and Life Planning classes and careers advisors.

UTAS have made their degrees more flexible to allow for many combinations of double degrees and studies in multiple areas. They are also offering a Master in Physiotherapy and a Master in Occupational Therapy in 2022, giving students a pathway into these occupations in Tasmania. Plans are underway to also introduce pathways into Dietetics and Speech Therapy in 2024.

Changes are happening at all the campuses of the University of Tasmania, Hobart, Launceston, and Burnie, with new buildings being built and a focus on progressively moving study areas into city centres.

The 2022 Undergraduate Course Guide for UTAS will be available in term 2.
