Digitally enabling the University community

Embracing new and emerging technology to enable ways of connecting, engaging and collaborating.

This Operating Plan sets out challenges for us as a university community to do new and different things, and to rethink and reimagine our approach to the dual mission of education and research. Every aspect of this plan must be grounded in academic excellence, rigour and governance – balanced with innovation, contemporary approaches and digital enablement.

In engaging with the University community, a range of ideas and suggestions surfaced that were linked to improving our ability to embrace emerging technologies to better connect, engage and collaborate.

In response to that input and the operating environment, digital transformation has been added to the five fundamental commitments on which the initial Operating Plan engagement took place.
