Staff Profile
The University of Western Australia is the State’s premier University of choice for staff and students.
Our excellence in teaching and research is reflected in prestigious international and national award winning staff, including our Nobel Laureate Professor Barry Marshall.
Why choose UWA

A range of commercially orientated professional and technical staff support the University in human resources, finance, information technology and campus management functions.
