Editing University of New South Wales (section)

===Expansion===
In 1958, the university's name was changed to the "University of New South Wales" reflecting a transformation from a technology-based institution to a generalist university. In 1960, the faculties of [[UNSW Faculty of Arts|arts]] and [[UNSW Faculty of Medicine|medicine]] were established, with the [[UNSW Faculty of Law|faculty of law]] coming into being in 1971.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/university-archives/online-archives-search/faculties-and-boards-studies |title=Faculties and Boards of Studies |work=UNSW Records and Archives Office |publisher=UNSW |access-date=9 July 2019 |archive-date=9 July 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190709060554/https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/university-archives/online-archives-search/faculties-and-boards-studies |url-status=live }}</ref>

The university's first director was [[Arthur Denning]] (1949–1952), who made important contributions to founding the university. In 1953, he was replaced by [[Philip Baxter]], who continued as vice-chancellor when this position's title was changed in 1955.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/historicalresources/onlineexhibitions/vice-chancellor.html |title=University of New South Wales – UNSW Home – The Vice-Chancellors of the University of New South Wales Exhibition |publisher=Recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au |access-date=10 October 2012 |archive-date=26 March 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190326001341/https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/historicalresources/onlineexhibitions/vice-chancellor.html |url-status=live }}</ref> Baxter's dynamic, if authoritarian, management was central to the university's first 20 years. His visionary, but at times controversial, energies saw the university grow from a handful to 15,000 students by 1968.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://unsw.edu.au/about/pad/history.html |title=History &#124; The University of New South Wales |publisher=Unsw.edu.au |date=5 September 2012 |access-date=10 October 2012 |archive-date=11 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111111092631/http://www.unsw.edu.au/about/pad/history.html |url-status=live }}</ref> The new vice-chancellor, [[Rupert Myers]] (1969–1981), brought consolidation and an urbane management style to a period of expanding student numbers, demand for change in university style, and challenges of student unrest.

In 1962, the academic book publishing company [[University of New South Wales Press]] was launched. Now an [[Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission|ACNC]] [[Nonprofit organization|not-for-profit]] entity, it has three divisions: NewSouth Publishing (the publishing arm of the company), NewSouth Books (the sales, marketing and distribution part of the company), and the UNSW Bookshop, situated at the Kensington campus.

The stabilising techniques of the 1980s managed by the vice-chancellor, [[Michael Birt (biochemist)|Michael Birt]] (1981–1992),<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/historicalresources/onlineexhibitions/vice-chancellor.html#birt |title=University of New South Wales – UNSW Home – The Vice-Chancellors of the University of New South Wales Exhibition |publisher=Recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au |access-date=10 October 2012 |archive-date=26 March 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190326001341/https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/historicalresources/onlineexhibitions/vice-chancellor.html#birt |url-status=live }}</ref> provided a firm base for the energetic corporatism and campus enhancements pursued by the subsequent vice-chancellor, [[John Niland]] (1992–2002). The 1990s had the addition of fine arts to the university. The university established colleges in [[Newcastle, New South Wales|Newcastle]] (1951) and [[Wollongong]] (1961), which eventually became the [[University of Newcastle, Australia|University of Newcastle]] and the [[University of Wollongong]] in 1965 and 1975, respectively.

The former St George Institute of Education (part of the short-lived [[Sydney College of Advanced Education]]) amalgamated with the university from 1 January 1990, resulting in the formation of a School of Teacher Education at the former SGIE campus at [[Oatley, New South Wales|Oatley]]. A School of Sports and Leisure Studies and a School of Arts and Music Education were also subsequently based at St George. The campus was closed in 1999.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/sites/default/files/documents/A569-SGIE.pdf | title=St George Institute of Education (SGIE), Sydney College of Advanced Education | publisher=UNSW University Archives | access-date=11 January 2019 | archive-date=9 July 2019 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190709060346/https://www.recordkeeping.unsw.edu.au/sites/default/files/documents/A569-SGIE.pdf | url-status=live }}</ref>
