You make CDU
‘You make CDU’ is a flip on the traditional university narrative. We won’t talk about why our students need us, rather, we’ll talk about why we need them.
We believe we’re only as good as the unique minds we foster.
At Charles Darwin University, we recognise that every connection creates opportunities. We are passionate about connecting students to the transformative power of training, education and research.
We need your diverse backgrounds, life experiences, creative minds, curiosity and community-mindedness, to help us build a new world.
We will stand out as a university that empowers and supports people by offering them an inclusive and flexible learning environment.
The future is bright and exciting when we welcome and celebrate our differences.
Together we are a positive force to be reckoned with.
