The University of Notre Dame Australia [14] is a private Roman Catholic university in Australia with campuses in Fremantle and Broome in Western Australia and Sydney in New South Wales. [15] Its campuses are notable for its restored late Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian-style architecture, [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] most of which is ubiquitous in Fremantle's West End heritage area as a university town. [21] [22] [23] [24] The university was established by an act of the Parliament of Western Australia in 1989. [25]

Contents

The university is known for its high student-satisfaction rate, which according to the federal Student Experience Survey 2019 was the second highest in the country and the highest in Western Australia. [26] [27] The university ranks lower on research-based rankings of Australian universities. [28] [29] The university is also notable for having very high practical placement hours in its nursing and education programs and being one of two Western Australian universities providing courses in physiotherapy and postgraduate medicine. [30] [31] [32] [33] It also has programs in other subjects including in commerce and law, which can be combined with biomedical science, as well as varying majors of study in the fields of arts and sciences. [34]

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 a Oxford blue badge over a Cambridge blue Greek cross. [35] [36] While the UNDA shares a similar emblem with the Holy Cross University of Notre Dame in Indiana, which played a significant role in developing the university and retains a seat on its board, they are otherwise independent institutions. [37] [38]

In the 2023 Good Universities Guide, Notre Dame University rated among the top four Australian universities for teaching quality, skills development and learner engagement. [39] [40] [41] It is also one of two national universities to have maintained a 5-star rating in teaching quality for 16 years consecutively. [42] [43] [44] The university is also affiliated with the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities, International Council of Universities of Saint Thomas Aquinas, International Federation of Catholic Universities and St John of God Health Care. [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]

In 1945, Father Patrick Duffy, an American navy chaplain, met Cardinal Norman Thomas Gilroy, Archbishop of Sydney, to discuss the possibility of the University of Notre Dame and the Congregation of Holy Cross being involved in the establishment of the first private Catholic university in Australia. [51]

At the time, there were roughly 1.5 million Catholics living in Australia [52] 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". [53]

The project was pursued for a number of years and property was purchased in Sydney on behalf of Holy Cross in 1948, [54] but ultimately the charter to establish the university was never acquired and the endeavour was abandoned in 1953. [55]

In the mid-1980s, concerns were raised that state universities were not able to properly train lay teachers to work in Catholic primary and secondary schools in Western Australia. [56] The idea of a private Catholic university again surfaced, this time on the opposite side of the Australian continent.

Peter Tannock, who headed the Catholic Education Office of Western Australia, discussed these concerns with William Foley, Archbishop of Perth. [56] They enlisted the help of Denis Horgan, a local Catholic businessman and founder of Leeuwin Estate, who they hoped would provide financial assistance in establishing the university. [56]

Horgan was supportive of the idea, as long as the institution would provide more than teacher education. [56] A small planning committee with Tannock, Horgan, Foley and Michael Quinlan, a Catholic physician, was established and developed the plan for a Catholic university with a number of sites in Western Australia that would provide medical and nursing education among other fields. [56]

The university was created through the University of Notre Dame Australia Act 1989 in the Parliament of Western Australia. [57] The act was given assent on 9 January 1990, the university was inaugurated on 2 July 1991 and classes commenced in February 1992. 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. [58]

The Broome campus, originally known as the Kimberley Centre, was opened in 1994 in service of the church and Aboriginal communities in the Kimberley region. [59] In 2006, the Sydney campus was formally opened with an initial enrollment of 450 students. [60]

Notre Dame University has campuses located in Fremantle and Broome in Western Australia. 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. [61]

Fremantle campus

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. [17] [20] 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. [17] [18] [19] Due to the presence of Notre Dame, Fremantle is seeking to be referred to as a "university town", [22] [23] [24] much like older university towns in Europe and to be the only one of its kind in Australia.

Some notable heritage buildings on campus include:

Sydney campus

The Sydney campus is spread across two sites –one based in Broadway and the other in Darlinghurst adjacent to St Vincent's Hospital. [15] The School of Medicine Sydney has eight clinical schools in Sydney, Melbourne and in rural locations across the east coast. [64]

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. [15]

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. [15]

Broome campus

The Broome campus is located adjacent to St Mary's College along Guy Street. [65] It is home to the university's Nulungu Research Institute and has on-campus accommodation. [66] It also hosts the Majarlin Kimberley Centre for Remote Health in Broome. [67]

The university has three campuses offering courses in the following schools: [68]

The university is a self-accrediting institution and is subject to regular quality audits and registration processes undertaken by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency. [69]

The governance structure of Notre Dame is determined largely by its enabling act of parliament and its statutes. These specify the source, role and functions of its trustees, board of directors and board of governors and the principal officers and academic leaders of the university. [70]

Admissions

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. [71] 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. [72]

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. [73] 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. [74]

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. [75] In July 2021, Notre Dame partnered with TISC to take applications for undergraduate courses in Western Australia through TISC. [76]

International students compose 2.72% of the university's student body. [77]

Teaching structure

Notre Dame University 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, [78] and the LOGOS program in Sydney. [79]

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. [80] A similar system is also used by the Australian Catholic University, which requires Catholic thought or philosophy units as part of their core curriculum. [81]

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. [82] [83] [84]

Rankings

The university has a higher teaching to research staff ratio than most universities in Australia. [85] The university either does not participate in or does not qualify for research-based university rankings including the Times Higher Education rankings, CWTS Leiden rankings and ARWU Shanghai rankings and is therefore unranked in those publications. [86] Notre Dame University does, however, have a position on ARWU Shanghai Ranking's Global Ranking for Academic Subjects for nursing at #151-200 globally. [87] University ranking organisations that rank universities regardless of participation such as Quacquarelli Symonds and U.S. News & World Report have ranked the university as #1511 and #1401+ respectively, though their reliability is subject to scrutiny. [88] [89] [90] [91] [92]

The university is however known for its high student satisfaction rate, which according to the federal Student Experience Survey 2019 was the second highest in Australia and the highest among Western Australian universities. [93] [94] The university is also notable for having significantly higher practical placement hours than legally required in its nursing, physiotherapy and education programs. [95] [96] [97] [98] [99] [100] [101]

In the 2023 Good Universities Guide, Notre Dame University rated among the top four Australian universities for teaching quality, skills development and learner engagement. [102] [103] [104] It is also one of two national universities to have maintained a 5-star rating in teaching quality for 16 years consecutively. [105] [106] [107]

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

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. [109] 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. [110]

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. [111]

Student unions and associations

The Sydney and Fremantle campuses both have representative student associations, created to represent all the students at each campus. The Sydney campus is home to the Student Association of the University of Notre Dame Australia (SAUNDA), while the Fremantle Campus hosts the Notre Dame Student Association (NDSA). [112] [113] These organisations are currently not recognised in the university statues, making them student associations and not guilds.

The Catholic Mass is celebrated each weekday and on Sunday evening at the Fremantle campus, [114] weekdays on the Sydney campus, [115] and on Wednesdays at the Broome campus. [116]

The student population across Australia at Notre Dame campuses numbers 12,394 as of February 2018, 6,544 of these being in Fremantle, 5,685 in Sydney and 165 in Broome. [117]

Libraries

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. [118]

St Teresa's Library

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. [119] Built on land first owned by John Bateman, the building was originally a warehouse for Bateman Hardware. [119] 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. [120]

Galvin Medical Library

Galvin Medical Library, located at 38–40 Henry Street, Fremantle, is contained within the School of Medicine, a heritage listed building. [121] 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. [122]

Craven Law Library

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. [123]

Benedict XVI Medical Library

The Benedict XVI Medical Library, located at 160 Oxford Street, Darlinghurst, is housed next to the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in a building originally occupied by a Catholic school run by the Sisters of Charity of Australia. [124] The building was taken over by Notre Dame in 2004–05 [124] and supports the Schools of Medicine and Nursing. [125] It was named in honour of Pope Benedict XVI during a visit he made to the university and library on 18 July 2008. [125]
