University of Notre Dame Australia

(Redirected from Notre Dame University, Western Australia)

Not to be confused with University of Notre Dame.

The University of Notre Dame Australia is a private Roman Catholic university in Perth, Western Australia and Sydney, New South Wales. It was established in 1989 by the Archdiocese of Perth with early support from its founding partner and namesake the University of Notre Dame (NDUS) in the United States. Following approval from the Parliament of Western Australia, it was inaugurated with canonical proclamation at St Patrick's Basilica two years later.[11] Early figures associated with its founding and development also include several Catholic philanthropists, the Congregation of Holy Cross (Indiana) and the Sisters of St John of God.

Its largest campus in Perth is in the port city of Fremantle where it expanded into colonial-era maritime buildings in the West End heritage area, later becoming ubiquitous with the precinct as a university town. Although initially controversial for its purchase of heritage property,[12] its restoration and influx of students has formed a symbiotic relationship with the local economy, culture and impact on tourism.[13] Its trustees also include the Archdiocese of Sydney, where it operates two campuses on Broadway and in Darlinghurst. It also has a campus in Broome in the Kimberley region and eight clinical schools located across regional New South Wales and Victoria.

Notre Dame's academic activities are organised into three faculties, which are subdivided into constituent schools, centres and research divisions. In 2023, it had a total revenue of A$231.23 million and a total expenditure of A$230.07 million. In 2022, it enrolled 11,860 students shared evenly between Perth and Sydney. Its interstate presence allows students to transfer between the two cities and Broome throughout their studies. It also has a reciprocal agreement with the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana allowing approved students to study abroad at the other while retaining grades and without additional tuition. This includes NDUS' Global Gateways, which has campuses in Europe, Asia and Latin America.[14]

The university crest is an open Bible with the opening verse from the Book of John inscribed in Latin. The verse was chosen as the university motto symbolising everything that exists beginning as an idea. The waves below the open Bible and the Commonwealth Star represent the port city of Fremantle, where the university was founded, and Australia as a nation surrounded by water. The symbols are affixed to an Oxford blue badge over a Cambridge blue Greek cross.[15] The university is affiliated with the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities,[16] the International Council of Universities of Saint Thomas Aquinas,[17] the International Federation of Catholic Universities[18] and St John of God Health Care.[19][20]

History

edit

Early discussions

edit

Following the end of World War II in 1945, a Congregation of the Holy Cross priest serving as a U.S. Navy chaplain at Naval Base Sydney was travelling between parishes to provide lectures and sermons. Cardinal Norman Thomas Gilroy, then the Archbishop of Sydney, eventually befriended the Holy Cross chaplain Father Patrick Duffy and they discussed the idea of the University of Notre Dame in the United States and the Congregation of Holy Cross being involved in the establishment of the first private Catholic university in Australia. Father Patrick Duffy in the same year wrote a letter to the Superior General of the Congregation of Holy Cross, Father Albert Cousineau, outlining its feasibility and reasons supporting it.[21]

At the time, there were roughly 1.5 million Catholics living in Australia[22] and an established network of Catholic primary and secondary schools. Cardinal Gilroy believed that there was a strong appetite for a Catholic university and that it would enable the education of an "elite Catholic laity that had been the glory of the church in the United States". Father Duffy included that 13 out of the 19 federal cabinet members were Catholic and the influence of Irish Australians, which around the time made up a quarter of the population, in the governing structure of the country, resembling it with the Irish history of the American university.[21][23][24][25]

After months of internal discussions, Father Cousineau and the American Holy Cross' Assistant Provincial Father Chris O'Toole visited Sydney in 1946 to discuss the viability of the institution in a precursory report, outlining its opportunities and disadvantages. While the report highlighted Australia's existing Catholic education system and potential to increase opportunities for the Catholic faith and its members, the report had also found obstacles. These included the lack of universal support or enthusiasm between notable bishops, distance between major cities, perceived competition from existing institutions and the substantial government lobbying required for support or funding. There was also the limitations of technology and issue of distance between the American institutions and Sydney, a future cause for stagnation of progress in the university's establishment.[21]

They concluded that while the potential for an Australian institution undertaken by the Congregation existed, they should start smaller from a single faculty and that the Cardinal of Sydney must support it themselves by providing land and funding. This was partly due to existing commitments in the development of educational institutions elsewhere by the Holy Cross and University of Notre Dame occupying finite resources. The Holy Cross had sent additional personnel to Sydney in the following years to evaluate the future university's plans. This included the proposed name University of St. Mary, faculties, locations and the need for a charter at a state or federal level.[21]

The project was pursued for a number of years and property was purchased in Sydney on behalf of the Holy Cross in 1948. Ultimately, political opposition from the secular press and the further stretching of resources due to the Korean War led to the required charter to establish the university not being acquired at the time. Despite positive reception from Pope Pius XXI and the dominance of Catholics in the governing Labor Party's hierarchy, wider Australian society was more skeptical of the plans. The endeavour was abandoned some time in 1953.[21][23][24]

Re-emergence and establishment

edit

In the mid-1980s, concerns were raised by the Catholic Education Commission of Western Australia and the Archdiocese of Perth and that present state universities were not able to sufficiently train the projected levels of lay teachers required to work in Catholic primary and secondary schools in Western Australia. This was partly due to the lack of public Catholic teaching colleges in the state found in the rest of the mainland. The idea of a private Catholic university again surfaced, this time on the opposite side of the Australian continent.[26][3]

Peter Tannock, who headed the Catholic Education Office of Western Australia, discussed these concerns with William Foley, Archbishop of Perth. They enlisted the help of Denis Horgan, a local Catholic businessman and founder of the Leeuwin Estate, who they hoped would provide financial assistance in establishing the university. Horgan was supportive of the idea, as long as the institution would provide more than teacher education.[26][3]

A small planning committee with Tannock, Horgan, Foley and Michael Quinlan, a Catholic physician, was established and developed the plan for a private Catholic university with a number of sites in Western Australia that would provide medical and nursing education among other fields. Additionally, a feasibility study was conducted by Geoffrey Kiel, a professor from the University of Queensland, and discussions with various Catholic institutions in North America and Europe.[26][3]

Father Ted Hesburgh and Father Ned Joyce, who had recently completed extensive tenures as the president and vice president of the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, visited Fremantle and met with the planning committee in February 1988. They discussed the potential for involvement by the American university in the establishment of the planned institution. In the following months, members of the planning committee met with the newly-appointed president, Edward Malloy, and other leaders of NDUS in South Bend, Indiana. An agreement was reached for NDUS to commit in becoming involved in the development and governing body of the university, provide on-going guidance and staff and student exchanges.[26][3]

 
St Patrick's Basilica, where the university was inaugurated

Increasing the confidence of the state government of Western Australia in the feasibility of the institution, the proposal received support from both the WA Labor premier, Peter Dowding, and Liberal opposition leader, Barry MacKinnon, paving the way for obtaining a royal charter for establishment. Prior to state legislation, the decision to name the planned university "The University of Notre Dame Australia" was made, after its founding institution, the University of Notre Dame in the United States. It would occupy West End heritage buildings in Fremantle in need of restoration, which would be renovated and converted for use, with the eventual plan to form a university town similar to those found in Europe and North America.[12][27][28][26][3]

The university was founded through the University of Notre Dame Australia Act 1989 in the Parliament of Western Australia.[29] The Catholic Education Commission and Sisters of St John of God provided initial loans and the donation of property, mainly old unutilised buildings in Fremantle in need of repair. The act was given royal assent on 9 January 1990 and the university was inaugurated at St Patrick's Basilica on 2 July 1991 where it was issued a Canonical Statute. The basilica now serves as the Graduation Mass venue for graduates of the Fremantle campus, with St Mary's Cathedral for Sydney students.[26][3][30]

Prior to the decision to select Fremantle, the state government had offered the university an extensive land grant in the Alkimos region north in Greater Perth. Under the proposal, its campus would have been built on public land and would be treated in effect as any other university in the state. The state government believed that the campus could potentially increase the land value and population of the then sparse region, creating potential income and increasing investment from the private sector.[26][3][31]

Although this proposal was discussed extensively between the university and the state government, it was strongly opposed by the Liberal-National opposition. Following the election of Richard Court as Premier of Western Australia in 1993, the proposal was formally withdrawn. As a result, Notre Dame remains the only university established in Western Australia to not receive a land grant by the state.[26][3][31]

Growth and development

edit
 
School of Nursing and Midwifery in Fremantle, based in the former Howard Smith Building (1900)

The first college, the College of Education, had 35 postgraduate students in its first year and the University of Notre Dame (US) sent 25 study abroad students to spend a semester at the Fremantle campus. The program was repeated biannually. Classes for the postgraduate program commenced in February 1992 and the first graduations were held at Fremantle Town Hall in December 1992.[26][3][31]

Undergraduate programs began in 1994, when the university first enrolled school leavers, with approximately 350 students. Additional colleges were founded soon after opening in study areas of healthcare, education, law, philosophy, theology, commerce and the arts and sciences. A target was set by the university to reach 2000 students by 2000 in Fremantle. During this time until 2021, the university was not a Commonwealth Supported Place and tuition fees was not subsidised by the federal government. It did however receive other forms of funding by the federal and state governments and was the first private university in Australia to receive government funding.[26][3][31]

The university was also itself responsible for funding to convert and upgrade its buildings, restoration works contributing later in becoming ubiquitous with the West End heritage area of Fremantle. Students and university institutions began forming a symbiotic relationship with the city, which transitioned unusable old buildings and surrounding areas into a thriving interdependent economy. In 2002, a Memorandum of Understanding "town and gown concordat" was signed between the university and the City of Fremantle to promote closer ties between them.[32] Growth of the university has had a significant impact on the city as a tourist attraction. This was contributed by the students it brings to the local Fremantle economy and the restoration of historical sites.[33][34][35][36][37][13][26][3][31]

Further expansion included St Teresa's Library, named after St Teresa's College in Minnesota (United States), from where 170,000 works were purchased for the university library. The NDUS Librarian had informed UNDA of the closure in 1989 and US$1 million was raised from various sources to acquire its collection. The library, which as of March 2024 is closed for renovations, forms the largest of six libraries across its campuses.[26][3][31][38]

The Broome campus, originally known as the Kimberley Centre, was opened in 1994 in service of Catholic and Aboriginal communities in the Kimberley region. It received funding and was established by Sisters of St John of God on the site of a former Catholic boarding school for girls. The buildings are located near the epicentre of the town, neighbouring St Mary's College, and was restored and renovated for use. The campus has its own accommodation for students and grew to offer vocational and university courses in nursing, teaching and commerce.[3][31]

Starting in 1998, the federal government began providing Commonwealth funding and student loans to the university. This relationship grew through the institution's importance in teacher and healthcare education in the Kimberley, eventually leading to being granted Table A status in 2021. This meant that undergraduate courses provided by the university were now heavily subsidised by the government, effectively treating it as any other public university in the country.[3][31]

In 2004, Notre Dame became the second Western Australian university to receive accreditation from the Australian Medical Council. This was achieved after an agreement for reached with the University of Queensland Medical School for the purchase of its curriculum. It also received support from Curtin University to develop its biomedical science courses. It opened its first medical school in Fremantle in 2005 with an initial 80 postgraduate students, followed by Sydney in 2008 and has received funding to open another in Broome in 2025.[3][39] In 2007, it entered into a joint partnership with the University of Western Australia to collaborate on the Rural Clinical School of Western Australia.[40]

Expansion to New South Wales

edit
 
Entrance to St Benedict's Church (1852) home to a Sydney campus

Following an invitation by the Archdiocese of Sydney, a new campus was opened in 2006 by then Prime Minister John Howard on the site of St Benedict's Church on Broadway in Sydney. This was followed by another Sydney campus in 2008 on the sites of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church and Sacred Heart Hospice in Darlinghurst. Notre Dame was chosen partly for its expertise in restoring deteriorating historical landmarks and high-density campus planning. The Darlinghurst campus is adjacent to St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, where the university is affiliated with St Vincent’s & Mater Clinical School.[3]

The establishment of the Sydney campus was funded primarily by the federal government with additional funding from the Archdioceses of Sydney and the Sydney Catholic Education Office. Existing property surrounding the sites such as Pioneer House on Broadway were also purchased and new buildings were built to accommodate the future growth of student population. The Sydney Catholic Education Office also donated property including the Canavan Hall building, which now houses St Benedict’s Library among other facilities. In addition, the Broadway campus has access to a number of facilities in the neighbouring University of Technology Sydney under a mutual agreement.[3]

In 2008, Notre Dame opened its second medical school on its Sydney campuses, making it the only university in Australia to have more than one medical school. The medical school, which now has clinical and training sites across multiple states, had an initial enrolment of 100 students from New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. Pope Benedict XVI visited the newly-opened medical school and St Benedict’s Library, which is named after him. He also visited the Sacred Heart Catholic Church on the Darlinghurst campus, which together with the Sacred Heart Health Service and St Vincent's Hospital forms a key component of the school of medicine.[3]

Campuses and buildings

Notre Dame has campuses located in the port city of Fremantle in Greater Perth, the resort town of Broome in the Kimberley and in Darlinghurst and on Broadway in inner city Sydney.[41] It is the only university in Australia to have major campuses on both the east and west coasts and students can apply to switch between campuses while studying the same course.[42] In addition to the campuses, the university also has eight clinical schools as part of its school of medicine located across Sydney and Melbourne and also in regional New South Wales and Victoria.[43]

Fremantle campus

edit

The Fremantle campus is located in the historic West End of the city, a designated heritage precinct famous for its late Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian-style architecture.[34][37] The university has rejuvenated much of the West End and has worked to restore the traditional architecture of the precinct, occupying 50 properties since its establishment in 1992 and restoring many buildings.[34][35][36] Due to the presence of Notre Dame, Fremantle is seeking to be referred to as a "university town",[12][27][28] much like older university towns in Europe and to be the only one of its kind in Australia.

Sydney campus

edit

The Sydney campus is spread across two sites – one based in Broadway and the other in Darlinghurst adjacent to St Vincent's Hospital.[10] The School of Medicine Sydney has eight clinical schools in Sydney, Melbourne and in rural locations across the east coast.[46]

The Sydney Clinical School is located across St Vincent's & Mater Clinical School at St Vincent's Hospital, Auburn Clinical School at Auburn Hospital and Hawkesbury Clinical School at Hawkesbury Health Service. The Melbourne Clinical School is located at the Werribee Mercy Hospital.[10]

The rural clinical schools are located at the Lithgow Clinical School at Lithgow Hospital, the Ballarat Clinical School at St John of God Hospital Ballarat, the Riverina Regional Training Hub (RRTH) and the Wagga Wagga Clinical School at Calvary Health Care Riverina.[10]

Broome campus

edit

The Broome campus is located adjacent to St Mary's College along Guy Street.[47] It is home to the university's Nulungu Research Institute and has on-campus accommodation.[48] It also hosts the Majarlin Kimberley Centre for Remote Health in Broome.[49]

Governance and structure

edit
 
Francis Campbell, a former British ambassador to the Holy See, is the vice chancellor

The university is bound by its governing legislation the University of Notre Dame Australia Act 1989,[50] the University Statutes[51] and the Canonical Statutes.[11] The two main bodies in Notre Dame's governance structure are the Board of Trustees and the Board of Directors, both of which were established by the Act and with powers defined by the statutes.[51] The use of boards as opposed to councils at other Australian universities may stem its founding institution being from the United States. The Act provide that the Board of Trustees: "are the custodians of the University and are responsible for ensuring that there is compliance with [the Catholic objects of the university]".[50]

The chancellor of the university is Christopher Ellison, who was appointed in August 2017 in succession to Peter Prendiville and took office in January 2018.[52] The chancellor is appointed by the Trustees for "a period, which must not exceed 8 years, that is determined by the Trustees, or until he or she resigns from that office or ceases to be a Trustee".[50] The role of the chancellor is mainly ceremonial; The vice chancellor is the principal academic and administrative officer and is appointed by the Board of Directors on the nomination of the Trustees.[50] Since February 2020 this has been Francis Campbell succeeding Celia Hammond who retired to run for parliament.[53] The boards also appoint the deputy and pro vice chancellors to assist and advise the vice chancellor as required.[51] The executive management include four deputy vice chancellors, five pro vice chancellors, the university secretary, several chiefs and deputies and the executive deans of the three faculties which are appointed directly by the vice chancellor.[54]

 
The Trustees include the Roman Catholic Archdioceses of Sydney and Perth (pictured)

The Board of Trustees is the supreme administrative body of the university.[51] In addition to 12 representatives from the university it includes two members appointed by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Perth; two members appointed by Roman Catholic Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Sydney and the vice chancellor ex officio.[50] Its powers include electing a chancellor, who presides the three boards, nominating a vice chancellor and appointing members of the Board of Directors and the Board of Governors.[51]

 
Christopher Ellison is the chancellor of the university

The Board of Directors is the executive body of the university.[50] The governing legislation grants it the authority "to exercise all the powers of the University and is to have the entire control and management of the affairs and concerns of the University".[50] This includes the power to appoint the vice chancellor nominated by the Trustees, to manage faculties and the University Statutes and is the senate that confers awards.[51] It is responsible for the general administration of the university and is advised by several standing committees and the Board of Governors consisting of the Trustees and 18 other members appointed by them.[51]

Academic affairs is overseen by the Academic Council.[51] It is a standing committee of the Board of Directors and consists of the vice chancellor, the deputy vice chancellors, two pro vice chancellors, the executive deans of the three faculties, the directors of the research institutes, the academic registrar, the university librarian, two elected academic staff members, two elected professional staff members, one appointed undergraduate student, one appointed postgraduate student, the directors of four support divisions and other senior executives.[51]

The recognised trade union at Notre Dame is the National Tertiary Education Union which has a branch at its Fremantle campus and a branch committee in Sydney.[55] It is responsible for negotiating the Enterprise Agreement with the university.[56]

Faculties and departments

edit

The teaching departments at Notre Dame comprises three national faculties that comprise constituent schools, centres and research divisions.[51] The faculties, each led by an executive dean and their Faculty Board,[51] were created in 2024[57][58] to consolidate the 16 academic schools.[59][60] The establishment of faculties and academic schools is formally the responsibility of Board of Directors, with advice from the Board of Governors and the Academic Council.[51] The seven constituent schools each have a Board of Examiners consisting of its National Head of School, its teaching staff and program coordinators and the executive dean of their respective faculty.[51]

Academic terms

edit

The academic year at Notre Dame is divided into two semesters, with summer and winter terms in between.[61] The first semester runs from February to May and the second semester from July to October, each followed by two study weeks and two examination weeks.[61] All terms start on a Monday excluding national or state-specific public holidays.[61] The weeks of term are called "Teaching Weeks", numbered from 1 to 13, although this excludes study and examination weeks.[61] Additionally, there is an "Orientation Week", informally known as "O-Week", for first year students prior to the start of each semester,[62] also starting on a Monday.[61]

Certain courses in healthcare and education adopt different academic calendars.[61] Students in these courses also have mandatory attendance requirements,[63] including placements and clinical practicums,[64] required to meet their academic requirements at the university.[65][66] As such deans must be satisfied that each student has attended all necessary tutorials, workshops and practical work throughout the semester and non-standard study periods.[63]

Academic profile

edit

Admissions

edit

For domestic applications, an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), Special Tertiary Admission Test (STAT) results, vocational education or approved pathway studies is generally required for bachelor's degrees.[67] Applicants may also use their Year 11 and 12 school reports prior to receiving an ATAR to receive an early admissions offer based on their predicted ATAR.[68]

 
Commercial Building (1895), used by the School of Medicine

The university requires applicants to submit a portfolio to determine individual qualities about the applicant. Areas assessed include personal qualities, contribution to community and life experiences.[69] These factors can affect the applicant's selection rank by means of additional points granted to their selection rank. Other adjustment factors include equity, elite athlete and artistic performers, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander status, involvement in Australian Defence Force, school performance and the applicant's location. Overall, a total of up to 10 adjustment factor points may be granted.[70]

Until 2021, Notre Dame was not part of the Western Australia Tertiary Institutions Service Centre (TISC) nor the New South Wales Universities Admissions Centre, and students applied directly to the university through its admissions process.[71] In July 2021, Notre Dame partnered with TISC to take applications for undergraduate courses in Western Australia through TISC.[72]

International students compose 2.72% of the university's student body.[73]

Teaching structure

edit

Notre Dame differs from other Australian universities in its course structure by requiring undergraduate students to undertake courses in theology, philosophy and ethics. This is known as the core curriculum in Fremantle,[74] and the LOGOS program in Sydney.[75]

Notre Dame's medicine students study a core course, bioethics, whilst students on the Broome campus study Aboriginal people and spirituality as part of their degree.[76] A similar system is also used by the Australian Catholic University, which requires Catholic thought or philosophy units as part of their core curriculum.[77]

Several professional degrees are available only for graduate entry. These degrees are at a masters or doctoral level according to the Australian Qualification Framework, and include courses in medicine and research.[78][79][80]

Research institutes

edit

Notre Dame has three institutes for scholarship and research located across its campuses.

  • The Institute for Health Research (Fremantle campus)
  • Nulungu Research Institute (Broome campus)
  • The Institute for Ethics and Society (Sydney campus)

The Institute for Health Research draws on the clinical expertise within Notre Dame's Schools of Health Sciences, Medicine, Nursing & Midwifery and Physiotherapy to develop research partnerships and projects that support the healthy ageing of all Australians. Nulungu collaborates with national and international universities, government and Indigenous Australian communities to develop research outcomes of benefit to the country's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. It was established by Lyn Henderson-Yates, who herself is an indigenous Australian and is also vice-chancellor of the university's Broome campus.[81] The Institute for Ethics and Society pursues philosophical and interdisciplinary research across five core areas: applied and professional ethics; ethics education; bioethics; religion and global society; and Indigenous research and ethics.[82]

The university is one of the partners in the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort (Raine) Study, one of the largest cohorts of pregnancy, childhood, adolescence and early adulthood to be carried out anywhere in the world.[83]

Library system

edit

Notre Dame has six individual libraries across the three campuses: St Teresa's Library, Galvin Medical Library and the Craven Law Library at the Fremantle campus; Benedict XVI Medical Library (Darlinghurst) and St Benedict's Library (Broadway) at the Sydney campus; and the Broome Campus Library at the Broome campus.[84]

St Teresa's Library

edit

St Teresa's Library, located at 34 Mouat Street, Fremantle, is a heritage listed building in the West End and supports the programs of the Schools of Arts & Sciences, Business, Education and Philosophy & Theology.[85] Built on land first owned by John Bateman, the building was originally a warehouse for Bateman Hardware.[85] The building was first adapted to become a university library in 1994 when only limited, low cost adaptive re-use works could be afforded, and was renovated again in 2011 to provide maximum floor area.[86]

 
Galvin Medical Library was renovated and opened in 2005

Galvin Medical Library

edit

Galvin Medical Library, located at 38–40 Henry Street, Fremantle, is contained within the School of Medicine, a heritage listed building.[87] The library supports the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Physiotherapy and Health Sciences. Constructed from 1900 onward, the building was known as Fowler's Warehouse and served as the principal premises in Western Australia for D. & J. Fowler Ltd., the wholesale grocery company. The library was opened in 2005 after Notre Dame took over the lease of the buildings from the City of Fremantle.[88]

Craven Law Library

edit

Like St Teresa's Library, Craven Law Library is located in the former Bateman family warehouse complex between Mouat and Henry Streets in Fremantle. The library was established in 1997, but renamed the Craven Law Library in 2003 to commemorate the foundation dean of the School of Law, Greg Craven. The library supports the School of Law and contains a print collection in excess of 30,000 volumes, including historic primary materials.[89]

Student body

edit

In 2022, Notre Dame had 11,860 students divided between its three campuses.[9] The student population is largely made up of domestic students,[a] with a total of 240 international students.[9] The university has been allocated an international student cap of 700 enrolments for 2025, the second-highest increase relative to enrolled international students in Australia.[96]

Student association

edit

The Student Association of the University of Notre Dame Australia has two branches, each representing students in Perth or Sydney.[97][98] They operate both as the representative voice for students and as a provider of a wide range of services.[97][98] They are democratically controlled through General Meetings and elections, and are run by elected student officers.[97][98] The associations also support a range of services, including numerous clubs and societies, events, sports and advice services.[97][98]

The Sydney branch of the Student Association of the University of Notre Dame Australia (SAUNDA) represents students at the Sydney campuses meanwhile the Perth branch in Fremantle is abbreviated as the Notre Dame Student Association (NDSA).[97][98] Both associations have separate student-run clubs and societies,[99][100] and are governed independently.[97][98]

From 2025, both branches will be funded through the Student Services and Amenities Fee similarly to other public universities in Australia.[101][102] The fee is expected to increase the their resources and will be allocated though a staff and student committee.[103][101] For domestic students, it will be deferable through a SA-HELP student loan and international students will be able to apply for the Student Hardship Fund or other support services.[101]

Clubs and societies

edit

As of 2024, there are 20 clubs and societies affiliated with the student association at the Sydney branch and 17 at the Perth branch.[99][100] Students can also organise new clubs and societies by registering them with the association, which is responsible for funding and monitoring their activities.[97][98] This approval process does not authorise them to act on behalf of the university or student association, nor does approval indicate their agreement with their purpose.[97][98] Additionally, the student association is responsible to ensure their compliance with the University Objects and other policies.[97][98]

Transportation

edit

The Sydney campuses are served by buses connecting to nearby railway stations and other parts of the city.[104] The Broadway campus is closest to the Central and Redfern railway stations meanwhile the Darlinghurst campus is near Kings Cross railway station.[104] In Perth, the Fremantle campus is served by the adjacent Fremantle railway station which is the terminus for the Fremantle line.[105] The railway station, which also has bus services,[106] connects the university to the rest of the Transperth network.[107] The regional Broome campus has limited public transport infrastructure.[108]

Honorary awards

edit

The Board of Trustees has the ability to confer honorary degrees to "recognise distinguished achievements and contributions" in line with the University Objects.[132] Although it grants the recipient the titles "Honorary Doctor" and "Hon Dr", it is an award not formally recognised within the Australian Qualifications Framework.[132] There are also variants that can be awarded for "notable eminence" in particular fields and for "significant and sustained contributions to society and humanitarian service".[132]

Notable recipients have included human rights advocates, religious figures, academics, writers, healthcare workers, retired politicians and diplomats, those associated with Notre Dame's founding or advancement and several members of the NDUS.[133]

Additionally, certain emeritus titles can also be awarded to staff for their service to the university.[132]
