Since its inception in 2007, the University Network for Investing and Trading (UNIT) has become 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 a practical financial toolkit for novices and more sophisticated members through educational seminars, professional opportunities with our sponsors and national competitions across all participating universities. Follow us on LinkedIn for more updates.
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.
