More on Macquarie University
Description from Wikipedia:
Macquarie University is an Australian public research university located in Sydney with its main campus situated in Macquarie Park. Founded in 1964 by the New South Wales Government, it was the third university to be established in the metropolitan area of Sydney. Macquarie’s 126 hectare park-like campus belies its setting within the high-technology corridor of Sydney’s north-west.
Macquarie has a strong reputation in the business and finance area, such as the actuarial studies programme. Macquarie is currently reviewing its academic structure, with its 33,000 students to be located within four faculties – Business and Commerce; Arts; Human Sciences, and Science.
Macquarie University's linguistics department developed the Macquarie Dictionary, the copyright on which it still owns.
