University of Sydney

In 1848, in the New South Wales Legislative Council, William Wentworth, an alum of the University of Cambridge and Charles Nicholson, a medicinal graduate from the University of Edinburgh Medical School, proposed an arrangement to grow the current Sydney College into a bigger college. Wentworth contended that a state college was basic for the development of a general public trying towards self-government, and that it would give the chance to "the offspring of each class, to end up incredible and valuable in the fates of his nation".

In 1858, the section of the appointive demonstration accommodated the college to wind up an electorate for the New South Wales Legislative Assembly when there were 100 alumni of the college holding higher degrees qualified for nomination. This seat in the Parliament of New South Wales was initially filled in 1876, however was abrogated in 1880 one year after its second part, Edmund Barton, who later turned into the principal Prime Minister of Australia, was chosen to the Legislative Assembly. 

The vast majority of the home of John Henry Challis was granted to the college, which got an aggregate of £200,000 in 1889. This was thanks to some degree because of William Montagu Manning (Chancellor 1878–95) who contended against the cases by British Tax Commissioners. The next year seven residencies were made: life systems; zoology; designing; history; law; rationale and mental logic; and advanced writing. 

The New England University College was established as a component of the University of Sydney in 1938 and later isolated in 1954 to wind up the University of New England. 

Amid the late 1960s, the University of Sydney was at the focal point of columns to present courses on Marxism and women's liberation at the significant Australian colleges. At one phase, daily paper journalists plummeted on the college to cover fights, showings, mystery notices and an exit by David Armstrong, a regarded logician who held the Challis Chair of Philosophy from 1959 to 1991, after understudies at one of his addresses straightforwardly requested a course on woman's rights. The theory office split over the issue to wind up the Traditional and Modern Philosophy Department, headed by Armstrong and taking after a more conventional way to deal with reasoning, and the General Philosophy Department, which takes after the French mainland approach.

In January 2005, the University of Sydney exchanged the OAC to Charles Sturt University. 

In 2001, the University of Sydney chancellor, Dame Leonie Kramer, was compelled to leave by the college's administering body. In 2003, Nick Greiner, a previous Premier of New South Wales, surrendered from his position as seat of the college's Graduate School of Management on account of scholarly dissents against his synchronous chairmanship of British American Tobacco (Australia). Thusly, his significant other, Kathryn Greiner, surrendered in challenge from the two positions she held at the college as seat of the Sydney Peace Foundation and an individual from the official chamber of the Research Institute for Asia and the Pacific. In 2005, the Public Service Association of New South Wales and the Community and Public Sector Union were in debate with the college over a proposition to privatize security at the fundamental grounds (and the Cumberland grounds). 

In February 2007, the college consented to secure a part of the area allowed to St John's College to build up the Sydney Institute of Health and Medical Research.

Toward the begin of 2010, the college dubiously received another logo. It holds the same college arms, in any case it tackles a more advanced look. There have been complex changes, the principle one being the layer of arm's mantling, the state of the crest (shield), the expulsion of the saying scroll, furthermore others more unobtrusive inside the arms itself, for example, the mane and hide of the lion, the quantity of lines in the open book and the colouration.

Activity started by Spence to enhance the money related supportability of the college has distanced a few understudies and staff. In 2012, Spence drove endeavors to slice the college's consumption to address the monetary effect of a lull in global understudy enrolments crosswise over Australia. This included redundancies of various college staff and workforce, however some at the college contended that the establishment ought to decrease building programs.
