Dear UQ Vice-Chancellor,
This is the statistic you need to understand:
-
University of Oxford, United Kingdom, No. of FTE Students: 22,095; No. student per staff 10.8; International Students 43%; Female-Male Ratio 51 : 49.
-
University of Queensland, Australia, No. of FTE Students: 41,249; No. student per staff 37.6; International Students 42%; Female-Male Ratio 55 : 45.
To be in the Oxford league, UQ has to understand that it has twice the number of FTE students, but slight improvement in the female side of the ratios, and about the same proportion for international students as a percentage. The wider states of affairs demonstrate a deeper philosophic and political problem, in that sandstone universities, while shifted in naming to the multidisciplinary approaches, generally fail to consider local and regional factors in sufficient interdisciplinary scoping. Size matters in curriculum development, which is why, as a general truth, Griffith University academics understand, and those of the University of Queensland do not. It very much has to do with comprehensive higher education, which we are, generally, not seeing in Australian universities.
