Welcome from the Chancellor

The Council of Southern Cross University is pleased to present to you the 2002 Calendar. This publication includes comprehensive information concerning the University's structure, governance and legislative framework.

Southern Cross University continues to provide opportunities for high quality university education with a strong student focus. Our vision is to be a dynamic learning community recognised for distinctive achievements in teaching and research and a leading role in supporting regional development with an international presence.

In recent years, one of Southern Cross University's hallmarks has been its innovative and flexible approach in the delivery of quality educational courses and services to its students. We are a new University with a relatively small size which means we offer a lower student/lecturer ratio than most other institutions. Our research is regionally valued and internationally significant.

The Council of the University, through its major strategic planning processes will continue to focus our research efforts; to strive for excellence in teaching and research; and continue to develop distinctive programs relevant to the needs of the region in eastern Australia and our global location in the Asia/Pacific region.

On behalf of the Council of the University, I welcome you to our community.

Note:

The University Calendar provides detailed information about the University's structure, governance and legislative framework. The Calendar may be amended from time to time in response to changing circumstances. The Calendar is a companion volume to the Student 2002 Handbook which is the official publication about courses on offer, course and student rules, and information about student services and facilities.

The calendar is divided into several sections. Use the links which are available from the top and bottom of each page to move through this site.
