Health, Safety & Wellbeing

Please consider a COVID-19 booster vaccination if you are high risk or your booster is out of date. 

You can book a vaccination appointment online or call the UNSW Health Service on 9385 5425. Other options for vaccinations include your local GP or pharmacist. Find one in your area.

If you have any of the following symptoms, do not come into campus.

We encourage you to wear a face mask in crowded indoor spaces, for example, in shops or on public transport.

While the wearing of masks isn’t mandatory on campus, some faculties may determine and communicate the specific activities and classes where masks will be required.

The Wellbeing Team at UNSW has curated a range of health and wellbeing resources to support you including links to counselling services, mental health advice, tips on staying active and more. Access the resources.  

Additional health information related to COVID-19 is also available, as well as more information on mental health support and advice.
