The following research-informed academic principles are useful to inform the design of your courses. Course development teams should refer to these principles when designing, modifying and enhancing courses.

These principles aim to enhance students’ satisfaction, achievement and employability and engagement in their studies. You will see that the principles are thematically grouped but closely interrelated and allow teams to think holistically about the nature of course design including:

There are a set of development principles for undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The only difference is that the undergraduate courses integrate ways to embed the graduate attributes into each principle.
