Share with us on social media

We would like to see Western Sydney University through your eyes, and invite you to share your experience of our University with other students, staff and those who are thinking about studying at Western Sydney University.

We are seeking photos and videos that capture real experiences of studying at Western Sydney University. This could be anything from catching up with friends at a café, to playing basketball, browsing at the library, getting involved in events, doing science experiments or working in the design studio.

Sharing your photos and videos

If you are happy to share your photos and videos with students and staff, follow our accounts on social media, use the hashtag #WesternSydneyU or a WesternSydneyU filter, and tag us in or send us your photos. Also hashtag your area of study (e.g. #business) and geo-tag your location. 
If you have already uploaded some great photos or videos, just add the hashtag #WesternSydneyU and tag us in a comment on your photo or video. 

Where will photos and videos be published?

Selected photos using these hashtags or filters will be published on the University's social media sites and the digital screens around campus, so keep an eye out for your photo!
We are keen to give future students a real sense of what it is really like to study at Western Sydney University through the eyes of current students, so some of the photos and videos will be used for events such as Open Day, as well as for University websites, publications and advertising material.
