Northern Territories University was founded in 1989 as the result of a merger of pre-existing institutions. As well as a close affinity with its local community, the university's unique geographical location, tropical environment and cultural make-up have seen it develop a strong relationship with its neighboring Asian communities. The University is only a 15 minute drive from the City Centre, and in the City itself, just about everything is within easy walking distance. There are no traffic jams and clean, well-scheduled bus services link the city to all of the suburbs. An extensive network of bike paths leads to the entire major city destinations. In particular, there is an excellent tree-lined bike path that follows the coast nearly all of the way linking the City to NTU. It makes great riding for bike lovers. Darwin is Australia's youngest city. Its comfortable pollution-free tropical climate, excellent public facilities and unique location close to some of the world's most magnificent wilderness reserves, have attracted Australia's youngest population. With over half of the City's 120,000 permanent residents being under 30 and Darwin's being the staging point for tens of thousands of young international visitors, Darwin's social activities have naturally become both vibrant and multicultural.
