Campion College Australia

Campion College Australia is Australia’s first liberal arts college, offering a Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts. It is the first tertiary educational liberal arts college of its type in Australia and welcomed its first intake of students in February 2006. Campion offers a Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts as its sole undergraduate degree. The key disciplines are history, literature, philosophy, and theology. The program is structured (loosely) chronologically: with students studying the ancient world in the first year, the Middle Ages and Enlightenment in the second, and finishing with modernity and postmodernity in the third and final year. Students may opt to complete a major in any of the four disciplines. Students are also required to complete two science subjects in their final year. Starting with just 16 students in 2006, the College initially had an increasing intake of students although Campion remains a small institution. In 2011, there were a total of 88 students enrolled at the college. The Department of Education statistics for higher education in Australia show Campion College enrolments peaked in 2014 with 97 students.

Campion offers a broad program in the liberal arts, educating students in humanities and sciences which lie at the core of the Western intellectual tradition. In doing so, the curriculum prepares students for both work and life. Campion’s liberal arts degree emphasizes the ability to think critically and argue rationally, both in writing and in speech, and the development of the creative, analytical, and research skills that are important in any career.

Campion is an authentically Catholic institution, whose mission is to develop the Catholic mind and character. However, it welcomes all Catholic or otherwise students to study at the college. Campion is a private institution, established by the Campion Foundation through donors, and does not rely on government funding.

Minimum IELTS score required in order to get admitted to the college is 6.5. Other language tests accepted by the college are TOEFL and CULT.
