Studying medicine at The University of Notre Dame Australia

The University of Notre Dame Australia is a leading Australian university which offers an exceptional educational experience coast to coast. The university has campuses in Sydney, Perth, and Broome, and 7 clinical schools in New South Wales and Victoria.

Fremantle Campus
The university’s foundation campus is in the historic west end of the port city of Fremantle, approximately 30 minutes south of Perth. Housed within beautifully restored heritage buildings, it provides a town university of great character. The iconic campus is close to the Fremantle Harbour, cafés, shops, the famous Cappuccino Strip, and all major transport hubs.

Since the opening of The University of Notre Dame Australia in 1989, Fremantle has also been known as a “university town” and supports a growing student population.

Sydney Campus
The Sydney Campus is based across two sites—Broadway and Darlinghurst—both located in the vibrant social hub of the harbour city. The Broadway site is at the heart of Sydney’s uni precinct, a short walk from Central Station and close to Darling Harbour. Darlinghurst is situated to the east of the CBD, nestled in Sydney’s shopping and café district.
