QUT monitors progression and attrition in courses as part of
ongoing course development and review.
Progression is measured by an index which presents actual
progress of students as a ratio of standard progress in a course.
Along with graduation and attrition statistics, the index assists
QUT in monitoring student progress through a course.
Attrition statistics are based on enrolment at 31 March in the
previous year compared with enrolment at 31 March of the current
year.
Progression and attrition statistics are reported annually to
faculty academic boards and to faculty advisory committees. These
statistics also are included in course development submissions to
University Academic Board.
The Planning Section of the Division of Finance and Resource Planning
compiles progression and attrition statistics in April-May of
each year (for the previous year). Statistics are forwarded to
faculty academic boards. Academic boards are expected to take
steps to reduce attrition and/or enhance progression where
necessary. Statistics are also forwarded to University Academic
Board for noting.
