They are where we forge our understanding of ourselves and the world around us – and our place in a forward-looking nation. Our universities educated more Australian students than ever before in 2019 – over one million Australian and 450,00 international students. Almost 340,000 students graduated that same year. Our universities offer courses in natural and physical sciences, information technology, engineering, architecture and building, agriculture and environmental studies, health, education, management and commerce, society and culture, creative arts and food hospitality and personal services. Universities are constantly adding new disciplines of study that reflect changes in industry, society and workplaces. Through them, they seek to prepare students for jobs that do not yet exist. Australia relies on our world-class university research to find solutions to the biggest challenges and to grasp the most promising opportunities. University expertise, ingenuity and innovation help to develop new industries and new jobs that will shape Australia’s future. Through collaborations with business, university researchers help them solve their toughest problems and bring their ideas to fruition. Through this research, education and community engagement, universities improve the lives of individuals, families, communities, and the nation.

  • Universities and the Public Good a Review of Knowledge Exchange Policy and Related University Practice in Australia
    AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITIES’ REVIEW Universities and the public good A review of knowledge exchange policy and related university practice in Australia Michael Cuthill & Éidín O’Shea University of Southern Queensland Bruce Wilson RMIT University Pierre Viljoen Central Queensland University Australian policy relating to knowledge exchange has never been well articulated, notwithstanding that the nexus between knowledge, engagement and higher education in Australia has been on the national agenda for several decades (Grattan Institute, 2013). In universities, this policy deficit is reflected in a lack of project management and collaboration skills, and limited motivation of researchers to engage in collaborative knowledge exchange processes. Taken together, poor policy and inadequate practice constrain the effective use of knowledge in socioeconomic development and national innovation. This paper primarily focuses on the knowledge exchange policy–practice nexus in Australia. We adopt the term ‘knowledge exchange’ while acknowledging many other related concepts, such as knowledge transfer, university community engagement, integrative applied research and engaged scholarship. We draw attention to international contexts in which universities, governments, industry and funding agencies are now explicitly supporting and facilitating collaborative knowledge exchange activities. Our review suggests that Australia needs a clearly articulated national knowledge exchange policy, along with enhanced university capacity to implement knowledge exchange initiatives. Introduction versities are under increasing pressure to clearly demon- strate their societal benefits while producing high-quality, The idea that universities have an obligation to the public high-impact scholarship, and operating as astute business good dates back to at least 1200 AD with the advent of managers. the earliest European universities, such as Bologna, Paris The increasing demands on universities have prompted and Oxford (Cuthill, 2012; Brown & Muirhead, 2001).
