Education Strengths

To focus educational development, the campus gives priority to areas of Education Strength listed at www.monash.edu.my.  Priority extends to all areas of decision-making, including funding and staffing decisions.

Criteria for Recognition of an Education Strength

(i) Significant contribution to the Campus Operational Plan demonstrated by ducat evaluation;

(ii) Incorporation in campus branding, including contributions to the Monash Passport;

(iii) Leading the University;

(iv) Approval of the PVC, normally upon the recommendation of the Campus Education Committee.


Role of each Education Strength

• Maintain a sub-web site that includes the names of members and that highlights outcomes;
• Be led by the designated Leader who acts in consistency with Leaders' responsibilities;
• The Leader’s signature of approval must appear on any application to any committee or individual that claims consistency with an Education Strength;
• Meet at least six times a year; minutes of each meeting are to be presented to the Campus Education Committee in a timely manner;
• Report annually to the Campus Education Committee on performance against the recognition criteria.

Role of Campus Education Committee

• Ensure priority for campus education funding to Education Strengths;
• Ensure that any application before the Committee that claims consistency with an Education Strength bears the leader’s signature of approval;
• Annually reassess the optimal number of Education Strengths, their appropriate breadth and depth, and their fit within Monash education priorities;
• Consider annual reports and recommend to the PVC whether annual recognition should be renewed.
