About us

We are a university of the land and people of our regions. True to the character of regional Australia we have gumption, we have soul and we collaborate with others. We develop holistic, far-sighted people who help their communities grow and flourish.

Harnessing technology, we thrive as a distributed yet connected community, welcoming and engaging with people across Australia and the world.
