The context
In 2026, UNSW’s Learning & Teaching community is preparing for the upcoming academic calendar change to flex-semesters, which will take effect in 2028. At the same time, our new Progress for All strategy sets out that our educational offerings become truly inclusive and empower all our students to become successful, future-ready graduates and positive contributors to society.
As a result, we are all reimagining how we design and deliver our courses and programs. Specific support and resources are being made available to aid these endeavours.
Curriculum Transformation Support Model
Through a collaboration between the Pro Vice-Chancellor, Education Portfolio, the Student Experience Program and Nexus teams, a specific support model has been established. It includes a three-tiered approach to guide faculty colleagues through this transition, from a range of resources, through structured training opportunities, all the way to self-evaluation guides and one-to-one tailored support.
