Description from Wikipedia:
The University of Sydney (informally Sydney Uni or USyd) is the oldest university in Australia. It was established in Sydney in 1850. It is a member of Australia's "Group of Eight" Australian universities that are highly ranked in terms of their research performance. In 2007, the University had 45,182 students and 3,018 (full-time equivalent) academic staff making it the second largest in Australia.
The University of Sydney has been ranked amongst the top 40 universities in the world by various sources. The UK’s Times Higher Education Supplement World University Rankings published in October 2006 ranked the University fifth best in the world for the Arts and Humanities, nineteenth for the social sciences and twentieth for biomedicine. The University as a whole was ranked 35th in the world in that same publication's league table, ranking third among Australian universities. In the Newsweek global 100 for 2006, the University of Sydney (together with the Australian National University) was one of two Australian universities placed in the top 50 in the world.
