Australian School of Fine Furniture

Welcome to the Australian School of Fine Furniture, located in the beautiful city of Launceston, Tasmania. As an establishment and point of interest, we offer a unique university experience that goes beyond just studying.

At the Australian School of Fine Furniture, we believe in the power of connections. Through our events, sports activities, volunteering opportunities, and more, you'll have the chance to meet new people and create lasting bonds. We take pride in our research excellence, which not only benefits Tasmania but also makes a global impact.

Our institution is deeply rooted in the local community. We collaborate with local industry, schools, and everyone who calls our island home. In fact, the University of Tasmania has been ranked number one in climate action for universities worldwide. We are committed to taking action against climate change and have been recognized by the prestigious Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings for our efforts.

Located in the midst of Tasmania's stunning Blue Lakes, our institution offers a degree that provides a global perspective on the big issues. Students like Gemma Rushton, who studied a Bachelor of Natural Environment and Wilderness, have the opportunity to learn in one of the most incredible environments in the world.

Tasmania is known for its outdoor activities, and our institution embraces this culture. Students like Upadhya Anjalie Balachandra are drawn to Tasmania because of its natural beauty and the wide range of outdoor pursuits available, such as surfing. We believe that Tasmania has something to offer everyone, regardless of their interests.

As the only university in the state, we have unrivaled access to industry and opportunities. Our students, like Bunfu Yu, who graduated with a Master of Planning, benefit from this close connection to industry and have the chance to win national awards.

We are reimagining education at our campuses, with a focus on providing a good education to as many Tasmanians as possible. We are transforming our university to strengthen and future-proof our ability to fulfill this mission.

Join us for exciting events, such as the 2023 Tasmanian Australian of the Year discussion and the Plimsoll Lecture by Dr. Sean Turnell. Explore our campuses and get a taste of uni life, with the opportunity to hear about our courses, pathways, and scholarships directly from our students and teaching staff.

Registrations are now open for events in Sydney, Hobart, and Launceston. Let us know you're coming, and we'll keep you updated on the latest news and updates.

We are proud to support early-career researchers through the Discovery Early Career Researcher Awards, funded by the Australian Research Council. Our music students also have the opportunity to learn from internationally renowned musicians, such as horn player Stefan Dohr from the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.

Climate change education is a priority for us, and we believe it should be an essential part of schooling. We are committed to preparing our students for the environmental challenges of the future.

Whether you're a pro freestyle footballer, a childcare worker, a law student, or an art curator, we understand the importance of balancing different passions. Our institution, like Jay Hennicke, who recently graduated with a Bachelor of Laws, supports students in pursuing diverse interests.

Join us for the statewide tour of Ossa Music Prize-winning pianist Sarah Chick, as she highlights the work of women composers. We believe in celebrating diversity and providing platforms for underrepresented voices in the arts.

Finally, we recognize the importance of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to combat climate change. While reducing emissions is crucial, we also focus on carbon removal to achieve our net-zero targets.

Welcome to the Australian School of Fine Furniture, where we combine education, community engagement, and a commitment to sustainability. Join us in shaping a brighter future for Tasmania and beyond.
