The governing body of Macquarie University

The University Council acts for and on behalf of the University in the manner best calculated to promote the objects and interests of the University.

The University is a statutory authority, under the Macquarie University Act 1989 (as amended). Part 4 of the Act, outlines the general and specific functions of Council.

The University Council comprises 15 members who contribute a blend of commercial, governance, legal, academic, administrative and public sector expertise to the business and operation of the Council. Members are elected or appointed in accordance with the provisions of the Macquarie University Act 1989 and the Macquarie University By-Law 2005.

The University Council welcomes comment from the University Community on all aspects of the governance of the University.
