UTS College Sri Lanka is a wholly owned campus of University of Technology Sydney, Australia. UTS is a dynamic and innovative university, ranked as Australia’s top young university, and 88th in the world in the QS World University Rankings 2025, reflecting its strength in employability, research, teaching, and internationalisation.
Caring support and smaller class sizes
A robust framework of support services has been tailored specifically to meet the needs of every student on the Colombo campus and is freely accessible. These services include a Learning Support Program, one-on-one tutorials, study skills workshops, and full-time, dedicated academic advisers. Most importantly, all classes are kept small, with no more than 20 students in a tutorial group. This facilitates a more personal learning experience. There is also an emphasis on collaboration both in and outside of the classroom.
Preparation for success
Ms Alison Hiscox, Principal of UTS Sri Lanka, says, “At UTS College Sri Lanka, we share deep commitment to supporting our students as they achieve their academic goals. We believe all students with the potential to succeed at UTS should have every opportunity to do so. Our learning environment has been designed to support the UTS model of learning, and our students access world-class university standards from day one of their studies. We provide thorough preparation for success at university and beyond.”
