Five Pillars

  • Education for the common good
  • Integrating practice & knowledge
  • Transformative research
  • Integral human development
  • Universality

Central to the strategic plan are five key pillars which outline our commitment to deliver our vision for the University. Each pillar is inspired by our ethos and outlines a clear roadmap of how we will achieve our ambitious plan to build a stronger and brighter future for our students, staff and community. By the end of 2026, the University of Notre Dame aims to have achieved all of the sustainable and actionable outcomes which underpin each of the five pillars.

Universality

Universality recognises that Notre Dame is part of something bigger and deeper than itself. Building on our reputation as a leading Australian university, we will use our connections, networks, and relationships to provide every possible opportunity the world has to offer to our students, staff, and university community.

Universality will demand that all our teaching and research has a global outlook even as we continue to foster communities on our Australian campuses.

Achieved through:

  • Integrating and embracing differences, equipping students for our rapidly changing world
  • Growing our international partnerships, international student presence, and research partnerships
  • Enhancing Australian learning opportunities with a universal curriculum
  • Developing an international component of our Core Curriculum
  • Enhancing the education pathways for students from rural and remote, low SES and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities
  • Engaging with society’s most marginal people

Education for the Common Good

Building upon centuries of tradition, we will continue to innovate, challenge, and renew what we offer to our students, staff and society. We will ensure as many people as possible, from wide and varied backgrounds, have the opportunity to benefit from higher education. In doing so we will play a part in forming good citizens rich in humanity, with a strong ethical framework, and with the commitment, courage, and confidence to serve the common good.

Achieved through:

  • Interdisciplinary learning recognising the unity of knowledge and contributing confidence to act and serve
  • Enhancing our Core Curriculum
  • Interdisciplinary, Transcultural and Co-Curricular Education
  • Student Formation and Profile
  • A Community of Scholars
  • Programs of Professional Practice

Integrating Practice & Knowledge

We believe that complementing university learning and theoretical knowledge with the opportunity to apply knowledge through practical, real-world experience delivers better personal and professional formation.

This stems from our wider belief in the role of tertiary education to prepare our students for a world in which they will live and work.

Achieved through:

  • Development of capable citizens, with a confidence to act and contribute to serving the common good
  • Ensuring integrated practice is core to all our programs
  • Growing partnerships to establish a broad range of integrated knowledge and practice experiences for our students and staff
  • A continuously contemporary curriculum, with a strengthened workforce
  • Building a more engaged and connected alumni network, and engaging with industry employer groups and Government.

Transformative Research

Our learning and teaching is enriched by high quality research and scholarship. We want to create and transmit new knowledge, but we also commit to making a positive difference by undertaking research which addresses real world issues and challenges, improving the lives of people in our communities.

Achieved through:

  • Integrated partnerships, developing new knowledge and solutions to impact and change lives
  • Aligning researching mission to challenges for common good and impact
  • Partnering and impacting through joint and global research, seeking original solutions
  • Enhancing research culture and researchers
  • Developing our communities of practice
  • Enhancing our Institutes

Integral Human Development

We will help each of our students and staff flourish and achieve excellence as individuals and be the best version of themselves. This begins by embracing all the opportunities, privileges and benefits that come from a university education. We encourage our students and staff to contribute to the common good of communities, going beyond their individual wants and needs to seek the good of others using their education and all the formation we provide.

Achieved through:

  • Whole student formation and preparation to be an integrated, universal and impactful force for good
  • Integral Development of our people (staff, students and alumni) through formation
  • Integral Development through our partners
  • Integral Development within our University
  • Student Access and Opportunity
  • Recognising the importance of human labour in excellence
