Now's the perfect time to begin a voyage of discovery.

At Murdoch University we believe everyone has something they want to discover. It might be a new species, or a new vaccine. Or you might simply discover a talent for something you never knew you had that could lead to an extraordinary career. Now's the time for change.

Is Murdoch right for me?

Studying for a degree is a journey of personal growth and a great way of meeting new people who think the same way you do - Murdoch is the place where freethinkers come to make a difference. We understand that it takes different types of thinking to make an idea work, so we encourage our Murdoch community of staff and students to share stories, pool their knowledge and find new ways of thinking:

  • Our freethinking approach is one of the reasons we have a reputation for good teaching, exciting research and happy students.

  • Over 60% of our students are over the age of 19 so you'll fit right in!

  • Across all of our study areas, our courses have a conscience. For example, our Chiropractic students run special camps in India to help people who are involved in the shocking trade of rock breaking - treating them for cuts, bruises, fever and back ache.

Adjusting to student life

Choosing to study at uni is a big step - so you're not alone if you have some concerns to work out before you commit to study. We offer a range of scholarships, flexible study options and ongoing student support to help you fit study around your work and lifestyle commitments.

If you're worried about the cost of studying at uni, you'll be glad to hear that you don't need to pay out loads of cash in advance. We'll help you figure out what you'll expect to pay for your degree and the different options available to you to make study more affordable.

Our flexible degree means you can fit your study around your work and family commitments! With part time, full time, internal and external study options, we have a range of course structures to suit your needs - and can give you an idea of how much time you should allocate to your studies.
Don’t worry if you haven’t studied for a while – even if the last time you studied was at high school. Our foundation units and range of support services including counselling and free courses at our Teaching & Learning Centre will help you adjust to life as a uni student!
