8.1.3 Aboriginal Education Strategy
The Aboriginal Education Strategy establishes the University's overall commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education through the following objectives
- ensuring effective Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participation in planning and decision making in all relevant facets of University operations
- increasing access, participation and successful outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and staff, and developing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander resources, facilities, staffing and curricula
- fostering, supporting and developing research community activities relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander studies and issues.
Accordingly, QUT aims to ensure effective Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander involvement in planning, consultation and decision-making in all relevant facets of University operations through
- the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Committee as the principal adviser to the Vice-Chancellor through the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic)
- promotion and maintenance of the activities of the Oodgeroo Unit
- employment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the provision of appropriate staff development opportunities and career pathways
- development, implementation, dissemination and monitoring of QUT's Aboriginal Education Strategy.
The Oodgeroo Unit prepares the Aboriginal Education Strategy in consultation with faculties, University departments and members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Committee. As part of the University's planning process, the Aboriginal Education Strategy, together with QUT's Equity Plan, is circulated to faculties to assist them in the development of strategies for improving access for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
