The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

Overview of the Fellowship

This Fellowship will engage policymakers and practitioners to investigate how the higher education sector and Department of Education and Training (the Department) can effectively support remote students overcome the barriers impeding university success. It will examine teaching and learning practices; accommodation options; scholarship offerings; transition programs; academic skill development; and specialised support for Indigenous students, to define principles of good practice for practitioners. It will also explore how policy and the associated departmental programs can be informed to support remote students to succeed at university.
