Community engagement
Our Student Recruitment team continuously works with many external stakeholders across the community to encourage more of our mob to study at the University of Newcastle.
These external stakeholders include but are not limited to TAFE NSW, Aboriginal Education Consultative Groups (AECGs) across the Newcastle and Central Coast regional, Contarf Academy, NRL School 2 Work, Australian Defence Force (ADF), as well as Neighbourhood Centres, NSW Health. We also work closely with Aboriginal community organisations, such as Awabakal Ltd, Yarnteen, Wandiyali, Local Aboriginal Land Councils, Yerin Eleanor Duncan Health Services and many more.
Our community engagement is an important aspect of what we do, we are here to support more of our mob through their transition to tertiary education.
Our collaboration is a way of empowering our community to succeed in a diverse society.
If you have ever thought about studying at university, please contact our team, we are here to help you learn about our pathway’s programs and entry options for getting into the University of Newcastle.
The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
