The restructure rolls-on at the University of Southern Queensland, with a plan for a new higher degree administrative system, “to minimise duplication and improve HDR programs in terms of efficiency, quality assurance, and the student experience.” The idea is to combine the present 14.9 FTE staff now spread across two units and the faculties in a single team. As to redundancies, all USQ announces is implementing the new structure “may include”, “as a last resort, processes associated with positions no longer required.”
This is the third restructure in the works at USQ with a change process to the office of teaching and learning announced in June and a library review last month.
