A national Catholic university
A national Catholic university with more than 11,000 students, our degrees offer practical, career-focused learning which combines theoretical knowledge and workplace experience, as well as a strong foundation in ethics, to help ensure students graduate job-ready.
Pastoral care is at the heart of our ethos – including small class sizes, one-on-one contact with academic staff, mentoring programs and counselling support. We provide tailored support programs for international, interstate and regional students. We also focus on providing students with access to career guidance, practical workplace experience and direct links to employers.
We welcome people of all faiths or none at all. As an academic community, we encourage open and rigorous enquiry, debate and discussion.
Our campuses
Our Fremantle Campus is located in historic buildings in the beachside city 20 minutes south of Perth, with leafy courtyards and cafés all forming part of the quintessential university town experience.
Our Broome Campus, located on the stunning, tropical north-west coast of Australia, supports important connections with local Indigenous communities and is home to the Nulungu Research Institute, the Kimberley Centre for Remote Medical Training (KCRMT) (a Medical School end-to-end program with students housed on campus), and the Majarlin Kimberley Centre for Remote Health.
Our Broadway Campus, located in Sydney's bustling inner-city university precinct, provides a welcoming social hub within easy walking distance from the city's CBD and Central Station.
At our Darlinghurst Campus, also in Sydney, Medical and Nursing students learn in excellent facilities, including simulated wards and consultation suites, just a stone's throw from one of the country's top medical facilities, St Vincent's Hospital.
Admission and selection
Notre Dame's admission process is multifaceted and considers every applicant on an individual basis. While each program has academic entry requirements, the University also considers the whole person, as we recognise it requires more than academic excellence to succeed in your chosen profession.
