committed to the pursuit of knowledge, the dignity of
the human person and the common good.
At ACU we pride ourselves on offering a welcoming
environment for everyone. At the same time, we are a
university committed to standing for something clear.
We stand up for people in need and causes that matter.
We’ve grown over the past few years, and have eight
campuses around Australia, including a new campus in
Blacktown, and a campus in Rome, Italy.
We put our students and staff at the centre of a
vibrant global network of scholars, partnerships and
opportunities. Our research programs tackle enduring
and pressing issues in society, in Australia, and around
the world.
