Galuwa means ‘to climb’ in Gadigal language and that’s exactly what we want Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander high school students to do at UTS.
The Galuwa Experience is a fantastic chance for young Indigenous high school students to discover the opportunities a degree in engineering, IT, health, science and visual communication and animation can provide.
Galuwa Engineering and IT Experience
The 5-day program attracts students who are interested in the fields of engineering or IT, as well as those who naturally have an aptitude for maths, creative thinking and problem solving and are unsure of which career path to follow.

Participants also hear inspirational talks from Indigenous and non-Indigenous students, cadets and professionals.
