Understanding Student Equity@UNSW

The Understanding Student Equity at UNSW online modules will build student and staff understanding of the Gateway Equity Target (GET), widening participation in higher education more broadly, and how we are working to transform the undergraduate student community at UNSW.

You’ll hear directly from students who have entered UNSW through the Gateway Admission Pathway and will gain useful insights into their experience.

By completing the course, you will learn about:

  • what UNSW’s GET is and the key initiatives that support its progress
  • the importance of creating access pathways to university for students from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds, such as the Gateway Admission Pathway and Program 
  • the current demographics and academic profile of the Gateway cohort
  • how the Gateway cohort represents a diverse group of students, with each student bringing unique knowledge and experiences to UNSW
  • the strengths that students from underrepresented backgrounds, and having a diverse student body, bring to the UNSW community.

The course is open to all current students. It consists of one self-paced module, which will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
