== [https://www.uts.edu.au The University of Technology Sydney] (UTS Values ==) was founded in 1988 and is located in Sydney's tech precinct in NSW, Australia. A modern focus and a drive for innovation has enabled UTS to quickly climb global rankings. UTS jumped almost 200 places in the Times Higher Education rankings over the last seven years (2012-2019) and remains the number one young university (under 50) in Australia. UTS is known as a world leader in transdiciplinary approaches and sustainable futures thinking, with over 45,000 students and almost 4,000 staff. An industry focus with modern courses and state-of-the-art equipment has enabled its degrees and students continue to become more respected worldwide.

A direct industry demand has contributed to the successful implementation of such a vast and diversified portfolio that allows students to combine their core degree (e.g. Business, Engineering) with an innovational based degree.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p>partnerships Connected research International profile Social change

For example, the ‘[https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/opportunities/scholarships-prizes-and-awards/scholarships-uts/equal-access-scholarship Equal Access Scholarship]’ aims to assist lower socioeconomic groups to attend UTS.

There are scholarships available for both indigenous students and women in STEM.  ===Collaborative Approach=== ===='''[https://www.uts.edu.au/news/campus-community/texas-love South by southwest]'''====South by southwest is a huge multimillion dollar event that will greatly stimulate the surrounding economy, particularly in the area of hospitality. UTS is collaborating with this event. Not only has UTS assisted in the running of this economically stimulating event, it has partnered to create opportunities for UTS students to receive career stimulating work experience and internships opportunities for the event. South by Southwest will run a series of workshops, panels and mentor sessions that will provide educational opportunities to a wide variety of people throughout the event.  ===='''[https://www.csiro.au/en/work-with-us/funding-programs/sme/sme-success-stories/university-of-technology-sydney CSIRO]'''====UTS and CSIRO are together dedicated to assisting Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in their research challenges. For example, researchers at UTS alongside CSIRO have worked on projects with both Young Henrys and 4 Pines Brewing Company. ‘Berto (industrial designer and Senior Lecturer in Product Design at UTS) finds collaborating with SMEs highly rewarding and considers such partnerships vital for our economy and society.’ Thus the partnership between UTS and CSIRO can be seen as beneficial to SMEs, stimulating for the economy and empowering to our society.  ====[https://techlab.uts.edu.au/uts-nokia-5g-partnership-2/ Nokia]====UTS has partnered with Nokia to research and develop 5G and 6G networks. The development of this technology will work to significantly stimulate GDP in Australia. They are collaborating in the 5G Futures Lab that is equipped with state of the art technology and will assist in pushing their research forward. Additionally, the partnership between UTS and Nokia has resulted in the creation of the UTS Tech Lab. This is used as an R&D space for both corporations.
