HOW TO BOOK

About Macquarie University

Founded by the colonial leader General Macquarie in 1964 as a deliberately radical and unconventional addition to the tertiary education scene – 50 years on, and Macquarie University is still hitting the mark. Offering transformative learning and life experiences, the Macquarie experience remains steeped in service and engagement, a true journey of discovery and innovation unconstrained by the shackles of tradition and expectation. As the pioneering namesake suggests, the University of Macquarie aims to empower all students by pushing the boundaries of conventional knowledge and embracing a future of possibilities. Just as General Macquarie played a leading role in driving infrastructure, social and economic development in NSW, so does Macquarie University continue to drive the academic agenda today, creating an inspirational learning hub for teachers and students alike that is now ranked among the top 2% of universities in the world.

The facilities

Set amongst native Australian bushland, Macquarie University delivers a diverse campus experience with resident staff and students from over 100 different countries. The green open space around the building is reflective of the room given to freedom of expression and expanded thought, and where Macquarie’s pioneering approach challenges academic conventions. The university has recently invested more than $1bn in facilities and infrastructure which means students have access to world class resources such as the largest academic library in Northern Sydney, and Australia’s first not-for-profit-private hospital, as well as outstanding and world leading cross-disciplinary research facilities. At Macquarie Uni, students are fully considered part of this collective. Many degrees are devised in collaboration with industry bodies, specifically designed to give an accelerated head start in particular fields. Studies aside, Macquarie is equally dedicated to a holistic student experience, encouraging active participation in over 130 student groups and programs. Wellbeing and resilience are key campus priorities and are considered of equal importance to academic merit.

Transport and access

Blending a contemporary university environment with natural surrounds, Macquarie benefits from a truly unique environment. Located just 30 minutes train ride from the heart of the city, and 10 minutes direct train journey from Iglu Chatswood, Macquarie University has become a real student destination of choice. Additionally, the University is surrounded by over 3000 thriving businesses offering students real access into industry connections as well as an immediate alternative to the city centre.
