A MAJOR report by the Australian Universities Quality Agency
has commended the University of Western Australia as a provider of high quality
teaching and research and a place of high staff and student morale.
AUQA conducted its audit in August last year. Its report
details how UWA had been making refinements to its direction and underpinning
philosophies.
The report says UWA has traditionally enjoyed conspicuous
successes as a university that allows high levels of autonomy to faculties and
encourages individual excellence.
