The University Club is the staff club of The University of Melbourne.
The Club was opened in 1953 with 270 members. It was created for the purpose of providing a centre for the community life of the University and University staff.
Since its inception each year the Club has made a gradual growth of membership and in 2008 reached 2500 members. The University Club has come to fill its essential place in the life of the University.
The club has two premises:
University House, located on Professors Road and housed in a beautiful Victorian home with gardens to its east and west. Dating back to 1885, University House is the sole survivor of a number of Victorian Professorial houses that once lined Professors Walk.
University House at the Woodward is located south of Grattan Street on the 10th floor of the Law Building in Pelham Street, overlooking University Square.
University House and University House at the Woodward are located five minutes from the city centre.
