===Tertiary education=== Newman founded the independent school for boys [[Catholic University School]], Dublin, and the [[Catholic University of Ireland]] which evolved into [[University College Dublin]], a college of Ireland's largest university, the [[National University of Ireland]].<ref>{{Cite book|last1=Hachey|first1=Thomas E.|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tJ1sBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA59|title=The Irish Experience Since 1800: A Concise History|last2=McCaffrey|first2=Lawrence J.|date=2015-01-28|publisher=Routledge|isbn=978-1-317-45611-7|pages=59|language=en|access-date=10 March 2020|archive-date=14 May 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210514152631/https://books.google.com/books?id=tJ1sBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA59|url-status=live}}</ref> A number of Newman Societies (or [[Newman Centers]] in the United States) in Newman's honour have been established throughout the world, in the mould of the [[Oxford University Newman Society]]. They provide pastoral services and ministries to Catholics at non-Catholic universities; at various times this type of "campus ministry" (the distinction and definition being flexible) has been known to Catholics as the Newman Apostolate or "Newman movement". Additionally, colleges have been named for him in [[Newman University, Birmingham|Birmingham, England]];<ref>{{Cite web |date=1 July 2019 |title=Birmingham Newman University |url=https://www.newman.ac.uk/ |access-date=20 December 2023 |language=en-GB}}</ref> [[Newman College (University of Melbourne)|Melbourne, Australia]];<ref>{{Cite web |title=Newman College - Newman College |url=https://newman.unimelb.edu.au/ |access-date=20 December 2023 |website=newman.unimelb.edu.au}}</ref> [[Newman Theological College|Edmonton, Canada]];<ref>{{Cite web |title=Home |url=https://www.newman.edu/ |access-date=20 December 2023 |website=www.newman.edu}}</ref> [[Newman College, Thodupuzha|Thodupuzha, India]],<ref>{{Cite web |title=Home {{!}} Newman College, Thodupuzha |url=https://newmancollege.ac.in/ |access-date=20 December 2023 |website=newmancollege.ac.in}}</ref> and [[Newman University, Wichita|Wichita, United States]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Newman University |url=https://newmanu.edu/ |access-date=20 December 2023 |website=Newman University |language=en-gb}}</ref> Newman's [[Dublin]] lecture series ''The Idea of a University Defined and Illustrated'' is thought to have become "the basis of a characteristic British belief that education should aim at producing generalists rather than narrow specialists, and that non-vocational subjects—in arts or pure science—could train the mind in ways applicable to a wide range of jobs".<ref>Robert Anderson, "The 'Idea of a University' Today", in Kay Withers (ed.), ''First Class? Challenges and Opportunities for the UK's University Sector''. London: Institute for Public Policy Research, 2009.</ref>
