Macquarie University
About
Macquarie University was established in 1964 as a bold experiment in higher education. Built to break from traditions and work in tandem with industry, we strive for the extraordinary by challenging convention and embracing different views.
Led by our academics and researchers, we continue our pioneering approach – from inventing Wi-Fi with the CSIRO, to enhancing graduate employability through personalised degrees and degrees co-designed with industry.
Studies in languages and linguistics at Macquarie will prepare you for a range of careers across the globe such as interpreting and translation, teaching, journalism, business or international relations.
