Sarawak, a Malaysian state in Borneo, stretches along the northwest coast of the island and includes many beaches on the South China Sea. It is famous for its rugged, dense rainforest interior, much of which is protected parkland. Kuching, the state capital, is a bustling city on the Sarawak River.

Sarawak, Kuching has a lower cost of living than major cities throughout Malaysia, as well as a wide range of food, entertainment, sports, and lifestyle options in a safe environment. Professional bodies in Australia and Malaysia relevant to their respective fields of study, such as the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM), Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), CPA Australia (CPAA), Engineers Australia (EA), and Australian Computer Society, recognize courses taught at Swinburne’s Sarawak campus (ACS). The campus is vibrant, diverse, and colourful, with over 4,000 students from over 40 countries. The multicultural diversity on campus provides a rich learning experience and helps students and faculty develop a broader perspective.
