Australia

Fremantle is home to the University of Notre Dame Australia (UNDA), Australia's first private, Catholic university in Western Australia. Students have access to a large variety of courses because they enroll directly at UNDA. Students live in a residence hall with other international and Australian students.  CSB/SJU students take one course (Study Abroad Seminar) from their CSB/SJU faculty director.  The second course required for all students is the Australian History and Culture course, taught by a UNDA faculty member. A key part of that course is an excursion where students spend time connecting with an aboriginal community in rural Australia. Finally, students choose three courses that can meet requirements in the common curriculum or possibly major or minor requirements from the academic course catalog at UNDA.
