Welcome

The Confucius Institute (CI) at The University of Western Australia (UWA), the first CI to be established in Australia, is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the strengthening of links between China and Western Australia, especially in the areas of Chinese language teaching and learning and cross-cultural awareness (including business culture).

The CI at UWA was officially unveiled on 20 May 2005 and its premises are located at the historic Claremont Campus (former site of the Claremont Teachers’ College).
