Renewing our curriculum architecture

Transitioning to a coursework suite that meets the needs of our students, employers and the University.

We will extend our work on the renewed curriculum architecture to enhance the attractiveness and sustainability of our coursework suite and its delivery. Macquarie needs a more efficient, focused and sustainable, and better targeted suite of courses for the future.

Our focus will be on achieving student success and on providing exceptional quality in our courses, teaching and student engagement. To support this, we will match our modes of engagement with the needs and expectations of contemporary students.

Work streams

The workstreams which form the coursework suite and delivery program were completed in January of 2023.

Matters relating to education are managed through the Education Strategy Committee.
