WELCOME - Geraldton Universities Centre

 

Welcome to Geraldton Universities Centre (GUC). The GUC was established in 2002 and allows people in the Mid West of Western Australia to live, work and study locally.  Almost 150 people have graduated from university degree courses in Geraldton since our inception, the majority now working as teachers and nurses in regional WA.


Mission

The Geraldton Universities Centre's objective is to facilitate, deliver, promote and provide access to university education for people residing in the Mid West. We are the first point of contact for Mid West people seeking information on university study.

 

The GUC is neither a university nor a campus of a university.  Rather, we are an independent, not-for-profit, incorporated body, supporting and delivering university courses in Geraldton on behalf of metropolitan based universities.

 

Hollomby Foundation

The GUC launched the philanthropic Hollomby Foundation on July 22, 2010.  Named in honour of the "Shortbread Man" Joe Hollomby, the Foundation aims to raise more than $1million over three years to support Mid West students.  Find our more about the Foundation by clicking here.

Courses

The Geraldton Universities Centre currently offers undergraduate courses including Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood), Bachelor Education (Primary) and Bachelor of Science (Nursing).  We also offer bridging courses to gain entrance into university.

 

Be sure to keep checking back to this site as new courses are expected to be added in the near future.  If you have a particular area of interest or course you would like to see the GUC progress, please use our contact form to let us know.

 

Browse our site to familiarise yourself with the university courses offered in Geraldton or use our online contact form to contact us for more information. Use the navigation at the top of each page to find your way around.
