QUT monitors unit completion to ensure the efficiency and
effectiveness of teaching activity.
Unit completion is measured by an index which illustrates the
extent to which students successfully completed a unit attempted
for the year in question.
The Planning Section of the Division of Finance and Resource Planning
compiles unit completion statistics in July of each year (for the
previous year). The statistics are reported annually to faculty
academic boards and faculty advisory committees. Academic boards
are expected to examine low completion rates identified in
exception reports, and to take steps to enhance completion where
necessary.
It is recognised that there will be significant variations in
unit completion rates across disciplines. Therefore, schools are
responsible for establishing discipline benchmarks to assist the
process of monitoring unit completion rates.
The Deputy Vice-Chancellor is responsible for monitoring unit
completion data in liaison with the Planning Section, advising
University Academic Board as necessary.
