At Charles Sturt University we believe that wisdom transforms communities. With tenacity, we help to shape resilient, sustainable regions for the future. Acknowledging the culture and insight of First Nations Australians, our ethos is clearly described by the Wiradjuri phrase, yindyamarra winhanganha, meaning the wisdom of respectfully knowing how to live well in a world worth living in.
Our mission is to build skills and knowledge in our regions with global impact. We offer choice and flexibility to students and work together with our industries and communities in teaching, research, and engagement. Growing from our historical roots, we share our knowledge and expertise as a significant regional export industry, and we bring strength and learning from this back to our regions. Through our values, we create a welcoming community experience and learning environment that supports innovative research and advances society.
