About us

The Division of Student Success  focuses on delivery of para-academic support for students as well as enabling and transition programs through four key areas: Enabling and Transition Programs, First Nations Pathways, First Nations Student Connect and Student Skills. Through inclusive practices the division builds aspiration levels for higher education, enhances participation in chosen courses of study through retention strategies and enables people to make smooth transitions into university and the workforce. We work collaboratively with faculties and divisions, community, and industry to enhance students’ university experience.

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.
