It's been confirmed 75 jobs are set to go at the University of Newcastle as part of an organisational restructure.
The merging of 5 faculties into 3 schools was made to address financial concerns from the loss of revenue during the COVID pandemic last year.
It's expected the changes will deliver savings of $33 million a year.
The university says the changes won't affect current students, however certain degrees which have seen declining interest are likely to affect future student intakes.
Impacted staff were briefed yesterday.
