About Student Life 

The overarching vision for Student Life is to create and deliver a student-centric educational experience that will inspire students in terms of their intellectual curiosity, empower them to develop resourcefulness, help them articulate personal goals and choices for their future and enable them to navigate their chosen pathways.

Our approach

Our approach focusses an improved student experience and aims to provide:

  • systematic opportunities for students to find the academic and social settings that facilitate interaction and engagement with learning and the University community
  • structured opportunities for students to reflect on life aspirations, learning, and career goals and make academic choices that support their realisation
  • pro-active, evidence-based, and sustainable support to the increasingly diverse cohorts of current and future students throughout the entirety of their learning journey with the University, from pre-commencement to graduation and beyond
  • seamless access to accurate, integrated and comprehensive information resources covering all aspects of joining and being a part of the University community and to its systems, resources and support services, and
  • systems and support structures to facilitate students’ effective engagement in University life, including health, wellbeing and safety and the means to address personal and other barriers to participation.
