The University of Notre Dame Australia

The University of Notre Dame Australia

From humble beginnings in Western Australia in 1989, Notre Dame has grown to become a national Catholic university with more than 12,000 students enrolled across its three campuses in Broome, Fremantle and Sydney, and its seven clinical schools in New South Wales and Victoria.

Students learn from leaders in their fields who are committed to providing an excellent standard of pastoral care. Notre Dame provides an excellent standard of university education, grounded in real world experience, and has one of the highest graduate employment rates in Australia.

Students can study a variety of courses in Notre Dame's nine Schools: Arts & Sciences; Business; Education; Health Sciences; Law; Medicine; Nursing & Midwifery; Philosophy & Theology and Physiotherapy.

With a unique application process, every student's application is considered on an individual basis. The University considers an applicant's prior academic achievements, his or her personal qualities, motivation for study, leadership skills and community involvement. Prospective students apply directly to the University.

Notre Dame is also home to three Centres for Research: the Institute for Health Research; Nulungu Research Institute and the Centre for Faith, Ethics & Society, with an emphasis on collaboration, transitional research and growing its higher degree by research population.

Through the Nulungu Research Institute, based in Broome, the University promotes and integrates Notre Dame's mission of Reconciliation across all campuses and provides excellence in the teaching, researching and valuing of community-based cultural knowledge. The University provides strong support for the process of Reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.

At Notre Dame, students are part of a vibrant community that upholds dignity and social justice. Students receive an excellent standard of training for their profession of choice within a context of Catholic faith and values. ...read more
