澳大利亚大学正在境外扩展教育业务以应对收入压力。新南威尔士大学位于班加罗尔的新校园已于上周五开始入学教学1。这一举措源于国际学生人数的软性限制，促使各大学寻找新的收益渠道。去年澳大利亚大学从国际学生获得50亿澳元收入，其中新南威尔士大学和悉尼大学各获得17亿澳元1。
印度市场虽然人口众多，但潜在学生基数受限。印度1.4亿人口中仅4500万个家庭年收入超过10万美元1，这限制了真正能负担国际教育的家庭数量。与此同时，印度学生在澳大利亚的人数从2025年的126,841人下降了10%1。新南威尔士大学班加罗尔校园的学位费用约为澳大利亚同等课程的四分之一到一半1，以此价格定位寻求吸引本地学生。
澳大利亚大学的海外扩张历史并不一致。澳大利亚总理本月早些时候在墨尔本与印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪会面时表示："澳大利亚大学校园在印度是我们教育伙伴关系的基石"1。然而，澳大利亚此前在新加坡、加拿大、南非等地的境外校园多数已关闭或出售1，这反映出海外扩张存在显著风险。
Australian universities are increasingly establishing offshore campuses to diversify revenue streams as they face income constraints from domestic restrictions on international student enrollment.1 The University of New South Wales launched its Bangalore campus last Friday, marking a significant expansion into the Indian education market.1
The move reflects the financial stakes involved in international education for Australian institutions.1 Last year, Australian universities collectively earned 5 billion Australian dollars from international students, with UNSW and the University of Sydney each generating 1.7 billion dollars.1 However, the expansion carries considerable risks.1 India's population of 140 million includes only 45 million households with annual incomes exceeding 100,000 dollars—a limited pool of families who can afford international education.1 Additionally, the number of Indian students in Australia declined by 10 percent, dropping from 126,841 in 2025.1
UNSW's Bangalore campus offers degree programs at one-quarter to one-half the cost of equivalent Australian courses, positioning the institution competitively in the local market.1 Australia's Prime Minister supported the initiative, stating during a recent meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Melbourne that "Australian university campuses in India are the cornerstone of our education partnership."1 Yet Australia's historical track record with offshore campuses is mixed, with most previous ventures in Singapore, Canada, and South Africa having been closed or sold.1
