A group of university students who attended a party in Ku Klux Klan costumes and another in blackface will be required to complete a course on Indigenous culture.

Charles Sturt University identified the students after photos were posted on social media last month from a "politically incorrect" themed party at a pub in Wagga Wagga, NSW.

Images also showed party-goers dressed as Nazi soldiers with Jewish prisoners.

The university announced it had issued the penalties on Monday and said the students would also have to "engage with Indigenous and Jewish communities".
