EP. 36 A Local, National, Global, Private University. Is this the future?

from HEDx · host HEDx

Professor Alwyn Louw joins HEDx as Vice Chancellor of Torrens University to tell of its growth to close to 20,000 students in seven years. As a US-owned private university operating across Australia, the Torrens story is one of fast growth, differentiated strategy, and a unique set up of governance and executive roles. It has a focus on innovation and growth with balanced ambitions for new domestic and international students, onshore, offshore and online. And with a model for funding research that is independent of government policy, is this the future for Australian higher education?
