Our Broadway Campus is growing

The University of Notre Dame Australia has acquired the historic ‘Blackfriars’ site located in Chippendale, at the heart of Sydney’s Tech Central.

The campus extension is part of our commitment to enhancing campus connectivity and fostering a vibrant educational hub, while supporting growth of our Health and Education offerings, addressing workforce needs and promoting community engagement.
