With limited resources and a desire to exceed, Australia must focus national and institutional research priorities carefully, and ensure funding and dissemination yield maximum returns. Chaired by Leo Goedegebuure, join Paul Jensen, John McCallum and Dominic English to discuss these issues.
With the decline of manufacturing, research and innovation edge closer to core business for Australia. But global competition is on the rise and Australia lacks scale and expertise. What is required to build Australia’s future research system and capability? How can commercialisation and impact be improved?
Has Australia the imagination and will to create and maintain international pre-eminence in higher education? Key issues must be tackled across the next few years if an excellent higher education system is to be designed and built.
The 2014 Policy Seminars address contemporary debates, providing a forum for leaders from across Australia’s education and government sectors to discuss issues of national significance.
Registrations are now open for this seminar jointly presented by the Centre for the Study of Higher Education and the LH Martin Institute for Tertiary Leadership and Management.
