Review of Higher Education Institutions In Please cite this paper as: State of Victoria (2010), “The State of Victoria, Australia: Self- Evaluation Report”, OECD Reviews of Higher Education in Regional and City Development, IMHE, http://www.oecd.org/edu/imhe/regionaldevelopment OECD Reviews of Higher Education in Regional and City Development The State of Victoria, Australia SELF-EVALUATION REPORT Prepared by the Victorian Government Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development The Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development, under the guidance of a Steering Committee and in collaboration with a number of higher education institutions in the State of Victoria, prepared this report as an input to the OECD Review of Higher Education in Regional and City Development. It was prepared in response to guidelines provided by the OECD to all participating regions. The guidelines encouraged constructive and critical evaluation of the policies, practices and strategies in HEIs’ regional engagement. The opinions expressed are not necessarily those of the State of Victoria, DIIRD, the OECD or its Member countries. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Self Evaluation Report for Victoria would not have been possible without the detailed and substantial individual input provided by the Victorian higher education institutions (HEIs) in accordance with the OECD guidelines. The quality of the Report is enhanced considerably by comments from them and from industry and government representatives on earlier drafts of the Report. Still others have contributed to the Report through workshops, teleconferences and face to face meetings on key themes and issues facing Victoria. All this was accomplished within a very short period of time, a testimony to the commitment of those involved in ensuring that the contribution of Victorian HEIs to regional development and engagement is maximised. The Self Evaluation Report for Victoria has been prepared under the direction of a Steering Committee from the Victorian Government Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development (DIIRD). DIIRD would particularly like to acknowledge the contribution of Professor John Howard, who wrote and edited this report. The Steering Committee Jane Niall, Deputy Secretary Policy and Co-ordination, DIIRD Justin Hanney, Chief Executive Regional Development Victoria (RDV), DIIRD Brendan Sheehan, Director Higher Education, Governance and Support, Skills Policy Development & Coordination, DIIRD David Hanna, Deputy Secretary International Coordination, DIIRD The Project Team Faye Burton, independent contractor appointed OECD Regional Coordinator for Victoria for the term of the project Prof John H Howard, Pro Vice Chancellor (Development), University of Canberra, and formerly principal of Howard Partners Pty Ltd Pin Ng, Senior Policy Adviser, Policy and Coordination, DIIRD Mathew Harris, Manager Higher Education, Skills Policy Development & Coordination, DIIRD Nadia Reid, Manager, Regional Strategic Planning, RDV, DIIRD Lill Healy, Executive Director, Regional Strategic Planning, RDV, DIIRD James Hodges, Executive Director, International Coordination, DIIRD Reference Group Representatives of HEIs, industry and government organisations.

  • Bringing the World to Melbourne: Transnationalism, Agency and Contributions of International Students to Making a City, 2000-2010
    BRINGING THE WORLD TO MELBOURNE: TRANSNATIONALISM, AGENCY AND CONTRIBUTIONS OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS TO MAKING A CITY, 2000-2010 Paula Christine Durance Bachelor of Arts Bachelor of Education Master of Education A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Education Abstract International students make up a significant proportion of the growing populations residing in central business districts (CBD) of Australia’s major cities at any given time. Yet they remain largely on the discursive edges of urban planning processes and perhaps even the ‘business’ of international education. This may be so because international student cohorts are transient, and have thus been politically decentred and under-recognised in terms of their impact on cultural, economic, political and social formations of urban spaces. This positioning is reflected in research into international student experience, which tends towards large quantitative studies, for example to evaluate levels of satisfaction, explorations of international students as cultural others, their experience as transient migrants in terms of social integration and practical matters such as their use of transnational communications. While these studies provide valuable insights into international student populations, I suggest their agency is underestimated in its potential influence on institutional practices in the city context. If this is so, there is a case for discursively repositioning international students in the university precincts and cities in which they spend most of their time and where they engage in educational, economic, political, social and community activity. The purpose of this study is to bring the lives of international students into the centre of current international education discourse.

    Melbourne’s North– the new knowledge economy NORTH Link NETWORKING FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MELBOURNE'S NORTH THE BEST FOR BUSINESS NACC NORTHERN MELBOURNE AREA CONSULTATIVE SUBCOMMITTEE VICTORIA THE PLACE TO BE Melbourne’s North – the new knowledge economy Melbourne’s North – the new knowledge economy is a study commissioned by NORTH Link and the Northern Metropolitan Melbourne Area Consultative Sub-Committee with seed funding from the Victorian Government Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development and matching funding from industry, education and local government in Melbourne’s North. It was prepared by National Institute of Economic and Industry Research. The report provides a detailed analysis of the Melbourne’s North regional economy and builds on the previous report, Growing Melbourne’s North – developing an integrated economy. It concludes that the region can achieve significant economic and social benefits if stakeholders share resources and cooperate across local government boundaries to form a discrete economic zone. The report includes recommendations and benchmarks that will support growth and quality employment outcomes for the region into the future as it undergoes the transition into a knowledge economy.
