Introducing the Education Portfolio
Purpose
The Education Portfolio leads the provision of a distinctive UTS education for staff and students, contributing to student success through quality teaching and engaging and innovative curricula.
Our teams work in partnership with Associate Deans Teaching and Learning/Education, Course Directors, Subject Coordinators, Academics, and Professional staff at UTS to achieve our purpose and meet the goals of the faculties. In co-creating enabling conditions, we enable a distinctive UTS education that contributes to student success in a range of contexts and various levels of engagement.
We have some exciting things planned and are aiming to develop a more integrated services model and greater opportunities for collaborating on overarching projects. For enquires about the new-look Education Portfolio, email Ed.Connect@uts.edu.au
