Faculty Planning Days are for our faculty communities’ leadership to plan for faculty ministry opportunities at USyd in 2025. These days are a critical moment for elected faculty leaders and their faculty committees and team to come together, get clarity about the direction we’re moving in for the year ahead, make foundational plans for faculty life, and prayerfully get ready for kicking off semester one in the following weeks. Each Faculty organises their own planning in this season.


Leadership Summit: Wednesday 12 - Thursday 13 February 2025

Leadership Summit is an exciting and significant gathering of all those students and staff who will serve the Lord Jesus by leading in the EU in 2025. We’ll hear from God’s word about serving as leaders, hear about opportunities and plans for the year ahead, pray together for God’s work, and spend time in faculty groups preparing for the year ahead. The two-day program will inform, equip and inspire our leadership community for the year ahead!
