The University Network for Investing and Trading (UNIT) is the largest investing and trading society in Australia, with over 11,000 student members nationally. In recent years, we have branched out from just investing and trading and now cover all areas of finance.
We strive to provide our community of students and members with a practical financial toolkit. This is through educational seminars, professional opportunities with our sponsors, and national competitions across all participating universities. Whether you are only a novice or already have a detailed understanding of finance and trading, we believe that with UNIT, you can continue to grow your knowledge whilst forming valuable professional connections in the industry.
Membership is free for most of our participating universities, and students from any academic background are welcome to join. With membership, you will receive fortnightly newsletters and regular updates about our events when you like us on Facebook.
Follow us on LinkedIn for more updates.

Upcoming Events
Exploring Legal and Financial Careers
This year, we bring to you an exclusive panel of leading corporate lawyers and investment bankers to answer all of your burning questions about the industry. Having all studied commerce and law, you’ll gain amazing insights into the many different career paths you can take and the required expertise in the fields as they reflect upon their own personal journeys.
Following the panel, attendees will have the opportunity to network with our panellists if any of your questions went unanswered. Whether you’re already set on a legal or financial path, or looking for some career guidance, ‘Exploring Legal and Financial Careers’ is an event you cannot miss!
