Campion College

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. The founding President was bioethicist Father John Fleming, and the first graduation ceremony was held in December 2008. It is located at Austin Woodbury Place, Old Toongabbie in the western suburbs of Sydney, Australia.

The college aims to contribute to the life of the Catholic Church and to Australian society through education. Its mission is to form future leaders through its broad program of learning in the Liberal Arts.

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 first year, the Middle Ages and enlightenment in second and finishing with modernity and post-modernity 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. They may also elect to study Latin and Greek above their normal study load. The focus of this course is the development of Western Culture. The Campion program offers an integrated approach to study. Individual units are not taught in isolation, but as part of the broader framework of the development of Western Culture.
