Partners

The University of Divinity has over 30 partners in the churches and religious orders. These provide material support to the University in two principal ways: appointing members of the University Council, and resourcing the scholarship of the University’s Colleges through provision of land, property, staff, and finances.

Under the University’s Act, six churches presently appoint members of the University Council:

• Anglican Church of Australia (Province of Victoria)
• Baptist Union of Victoria
• Churches of Christ in Victoria and Tasmania
• Lutheran Church of Australia
• Roman Catholic Church in Victoria
• Uniting Church in Australia (Synod of Victoria and Tasmania)
