L. Robertson, Director of Education; and Haydn Williams, Director of Technical Education.[19]
Its nucleus comprised the tertiary programs of the Perth Technical College, which opened in 1900.[21] The university’s Bentley campus was selected in 1962 and officially opened in 1966. The first students enrolled in 1967.[citation needed] Haydn Williams was the first director of WAIT.[19]
