Print the page | A | A | A

Deputy Vice-Chancellors (Academic) have overall responsibility for the planning, quality and delivery of the university's undergraduate and postgraduate teaching programs. This includes regular reviews of the university's policies and procedures to ensure excellence in teaching.

Universities Australia coordinates meetings of Deputy Vice-Chancellors (Academic) twice a year to discuss issues of interest. In addition, an executive has been formed to action urgent issues out-of-session. The executive for 2011 comprises:

  • Professor Sue Spence (Chair)
  • Associate Professor Martin Caroll
  • Professor Jenelle Kyd
  • Professor Shirley Leitch
  • Professor Birgit Lohmann
  • Professor Garry Marchant
  • Professor Arshad Omari
  • Professor Gill Palmer
  • Professor Philippa Pattison
  • Professor Andrew Smith

This list is intended to facilitate contact with individual Deputy Vice-Chancellors, rather than allow mass distribution of material. Relevant organisations wishing to distribute material more widely should contact our office or the Deputy Vice-Chancellors (Academic) Chair for advice.
