Excellent return on the ASSH research dollar DASSH is urging that the next Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) assessment fine-tune its research quality measures. Relative to other many disciplines, ASSH research excellence is all the more notable taking into account the higher frequency in individual university assessment, the lower research funding, the fewer research-only staff and the long-term significance of ASSH publications and creative works.
Joint response to ALTC funding cutsDASSH joined the eleven other Deans’ Councils to express our concern and dismay at the termination of the Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC). We asked for reconsideration and called for negotiations with the sector on how teaching excellence and innovation may continue to be supported and enhanced across the university sector.
