Curtin University Colombo is the Sri Lankan campus of Curtin University, a globally recognised institution ranked among the top 1% of universities worldwide and the highest-ranked Australian university in Sri Lanka. Located in the heart of Colombo, the campus offers students the opportunity to earn a prestigious Australian degree locally, with the flexibility to transfer to Curtin’s global campuses in Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, or Mauritius.

Renowned for its industry-connected education and global reputation, Curtin University Colombo offers undergraduate programs across Engineering, Computing, and Business, delivered using Curtin’s internationally benchmarked curriculum. Students graduate with the same degree and academic transcript as those studying at Curtin University in Australia, ensuring global recognition and strong employability outcomes.

Further strengthening its future-focused academic portfolio, Curtin University Colombo has recently launched a one-year Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence, alongside a Bachelor’s degree in Data Science specialising in Artificial Intelligence. These programs are designed to address the growing global demand for AI-driven expertise, equipping students with advanced technical knowledge, practical skills, and industry-relevant experience.

Curtin’s academic excellence is reinforced through leading international accreditations, including Engineers Australia (EA) for Engineering, the Australian Computer Society (ACS) for Computing, and AACSB accreditation for Business programs.

In line with its commitment to student outreach and education awareness, Curtin University Colombo is also partnering with EDEX Expo 2026 as a Gold Sponsor, providing prospective students and parents the opportunity to explore globally recognised study pathways and career opportunities through direct engagement with Curtin representatives.
