About
From our beginnings as a free-thinking university to the global centre for learning, teaching, research and industry we are today, we have never lost sight of our purpose.
With more than 23,000 students and 1,700 staff from across 90 different countries, we are proud to be recognised for the impact that our free-thinking graduates, life-changing research, and innovative campus and industry developments have made – both in Western Australia and around the world.
Learning and Teaching
At Murdoch University, we strive to provide an outstanding educational experience for every one of our students.
Our courses, teaching facilities, support services and academic leadership programs are all designed to fully engage our students and provide them with an integrated learning experience that prepares them for the future – either in full-time employment or further studies.
Murdoch University’s Strategic Plan
Our 5-year Strategic Plan builds upon our strengths, growing Murdoch into a strong, vibrant university community and positioning us to thrive in and make contributions to a modern world. The success of the plan will be measured through the impacts that our graduates, life-changing research and innovative campus developments make to communities, both within Western Australia and across our global locations.
Our history
At Murdoch University, we’ve been committed to free-thinking since our inception in the 60’s. We’ve created a place of learning and discovery through our leading academics, innovative courses, and ground-breaking research.
We pioneered access to a university education for people from diverse backgrounds, and are proud to see our students take their Murdoch education to the world to solve its challenges. Throughout this journey we’ve remained committed to adapting and growing in our free-thinking. In this way, we continue to be a creative force for education and research.
