Regional Development in the South West

Murdoch University is the university in the Rockingham and Peel region of the South West.

The Rockingham Campus opened in 1996 and already has over 1 000 students studying subjects including education, engineering and business.

The new Peel Campus in Mandurah is being built during 2004 to open in 2005 however, the first class of students are already using shared facilities to study nursing, the first course to be offered in Peel.

Each of these campuses was started with community consultation to determine student and community needs and to involve the community in supporting and using the facilities. As these communities grow, so will their educational needs and you can assist us to meet those needs in a variety of ways. You can make a gift to Murdoch University and request that it is used specifically at one of our regional campuses for staffing, facilities, student prizes and scholarships or special programs.

We are committed to providing an excellent university education to our regional communities and your assistance could be used to make a real difference in these regions.

Please call our Development Office on 9360 2894 to talk about how your gift can help meet the educational needs of these communities.
