We welcome you to our blueprint for the future

The challenges facing contemporary business call for outstanding leadership and creative solutions. As we build on the pillars that formed the foundation of our previous strategy, we enter the next phase of our transformation to becoming a leading provider of business education and scholarship in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.

As a business school we continue to evolve as we navigate challenges specific to the higher education sector, at the same time deliver education and research that responds to the current and predicated social, economic and environmental changes with which all sectors of our community must come to terms. These changes have created new and often very different needs and expectations of our School among industry, employers and students and they have played a critical part in shaping this strategy.

Our strategic priorities

Our strategic priorities demonstrate that we are rapidly transforming how we deliver innovative and socially responsible business education and research. When actioned they will enable us to carry on our mission to create a prosperous, equitable and sustainable future for Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.

Preparing business and government graduates of the future

To prepare our students for the future world of work, we will continue to offer business degrees that are innovative, with a focus on employability, taught using the latest technology. We will provide an educational experience that delivers graduates who are equipped with cutting-edge business knowledge and skills, and are globally connected, socially responsible, creative thinkers able to critically analyse problems and identify solutions.

High impact research

Our research will demonstrate the highest standards of academic rigour and independence, whilst delivering social and economic benefit to business, government and the wider community. We will continue to develop a culture of strong performance and promote our research achievements and impact to a broad cross-section of external audiences.

Enhancing our engagement

Strong relationships with our partners in business, government and social communities is key to our success. We will continue to build on our existing relationships and develop new strategic partnerships at the local, national and international level. With a long history of engagement with Asia we are uniquely equipped to enhance our strong ties in this dynamic economic region.

Strengthening our staff

Our people underpin all that we do. Strategically recruiting, retaining and developing high-performing staff will enable us to form a forward-thinking, transformational and inspiring community. Fostering a mindset that celebrates agility and diversity will increase our ability to deliver innovative learning experiences, high-impact research and enhanced engagement.
