Hi, I’m Professor Clare Pollock.
I’m… well, as you can see I have a bit of a title, but my main role is to work alongside our Vice
Chancellor, Professor Colin Stirling, to ensure Flinders University does everything we can
to give you a world-class education and a great university experience.
So please enjoy our Virtual Open Days, and I really hope to see you on campus at Flinders next year.
I know you’ll love it here.
Hi, I'm Nathaniel and I'm Taylah. Welcome!
We know you may not be able to be on campus but don’t worry, you are about to
get the full Flinders Fly Through. So sit back, relax and let’s go!
Flinders has a presence right through the heart of Australia from the Northern Territory,
through to regional South Australia and Victoria.
Here in Adelaide, Bedford Park is our main campus.
It’s gorgeous, with heaps of natural landscaping, great views and lots of ducks!
There are plenty of transport options to get here – you can bus, bike, drive or arrive
in style on the train once the new Flinders Link station opens.
Sturt campus is right next to Bedford Park and features Flinders Living, so if you want
to live on campus, Sturt is awesome.
It is also the home of many health-related degrees and our state-of-the-art nursing and
midwifery simulation labs.
Tonsley is our innovation hub – a high tech centre for our engineering, computer science
and mathematics teaching and research.
It’s also where our autonomous vehicle can take you on a handsfree cruise.
Victoria Square is an accessible, alternative and flexible space in the heart of Adelaide’s
Central Business District, where you’ll often catch business and law students studying.
Back at Bedford Park, this is Registry Road, the main entrance.
Right through those doors you’ll enter The Hub, one of the main places you’ll hang
out, catch up with friends or do some quiet study.
Flinders University Student Association, or FUSA is inside the Hub, and is a great place
to get support and questions answered.
The team at Flinders Connect can also help you out with general course information, fees,
scholarships and more.
From orientation to enrolment, study help, social activities and more, Flinders International
are here to support our international students, while Yunggorendi Student Engagement provides
support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
Flinders’ health, counselling and disability services are on hand if you need them, and
the Oasis Centre offers an inclusive, warm environment that provides services to help
build social, emotional, spiritual and intellectual wellbeing.
The library is right off the Hub, and can help with more than just books.
The library team are really friendly and will help you adjust to uni studies.
The library overlooks the Plaza.
In the warmer months and during our campus events, the Plaza is definitely the place
to be.
If you love your food – and who doesn’t, we have a stack of options on campus.
There’s sushi and Zambreros in the Plaza, coffee and food options in the Laneway and
other very cool cafés across campus.
In the Hub you can grab a burger from the Tav, coffee or lunch at Alere, or snack on
some Subway, Vietnamese or Afghan street food.
If you want to do your own thing, the student kitchen is ready and waiting on the ground
floor of The Hub.
Want to work off your lunch?
There are plenty of places to get your steps up at Bedford Park.
Take a lap of the lake, head up to Anchor Court, or over to Humanities Courtyard.
Check out what’s happening in the Sports Centre, or hit the gym for a full-on workout.
If you just want to relax, then chill in the Hub’s multimedia room, or maybe check out
the awesome art at FUMA, Flinders University Museum of Art.
Your lectures will be held in a variety of different places across campus, depending on what you’re studying.
The facilities at Bedford Park include some very cool labs, theatres and simulation spaces.
Make sure you check everything out when you get the chance.
It may take you a while to know your way around campus, but that’s ok.
Everyone here is happy to help you out, and when you first start, you’ll realise that
you’re not the only one who’s a little lost.
You'll soon find your way, and you’ll have an awesome time studying
here at Flinders.
Thank you for watching, and we’ll see you soon!
