The Andrews Lectureship at the University of New South Wales was conceived and developed by Professor Stephen Angyal and established with a generous contribution from Dr Andrew Ungar, after whom the series was named. 

Through the very substantial support of his widow, Beryl Ungar, along with continuing efforts of Professor Angyal and contributions from chemists throughout Australia, it is now an endowed lectureship of the University of New South Wales Chemical Society.

The lectures began in 1960 to bring eminent lecturers to UNSW to deliver a series of talks.

In the early days four lectures were given, but given this became onerous it was reduced to three.

The lectures are delivered by distinguished visiting scientists on subjects in chemistry or biochemistry which bear some relation to biological activity.
