About us

The Division of Safety, Security, and Wellbeing is comprised of several teams, including the Executive Office, Chief Security Officer, Health, Safety, and Wellbeing, Student Integrity and Support, Student Counselling and Wellbeing, and Accessibility and Inclusion Support.

The primary responsibility of this division is to promote a safe and healthy culture for staff, students, and visitors of the university. To achieve this, the division is tasked with implementing, coordinating, and evaluating an enterprise-wide approach to security, safety, critical incident management, student misconduct investigations, responses to reports of sexual misconduct, assault, and harassment, student counselling, and wellbeing support, and facilitating reasonable adjustments for students with disabilities or health conditions to support them to be successful in their study.

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.

The Wiradjuri phrase yindyamarra winhanganha means the wisdom of respectfully knowing how to live well in a world worth living in. This phrase represents who we are at Charles Sturt University – our ethos. It comes from traditional Indigenous Australian knowledge, but it also speaks to the mission of universities – to develop and spread wisdom to make the world a better place.

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

Charles Sturt University is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion. This is demonstrated through our Athena SWAN Bronze Institutional Award and our participation as a member in the Australian Workplace Equality Index. Applications are encouraged from Indigenous Australians; people with a disability; women (particularly for senior and non-traditional roles); people who identify as LGBTIQA+; and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
