Abstract
QUT is a major Australian university that ambitiously positions itself as a university for the real world of today and tomorrow.
Recognising that we are in a state of fundamental change, the Blueprint’s role is to anticipate the nature and impact of change, and to enable the University to thrive and adapt in ways that ensure we continue to meet the needs of students and serve more effectively the professions, industry and the wider community.
Over the period ahead, QUT will strengthen its reputation for producing graduates who can thrive in volatile environments over the long term, work productively in teams, and combine depth in professional knowledge with broad perspectives based on exposure to new ideas and different cultures. This focus on the undergraduate experience will be complemented by a much stronger emphasis on ongoing professional education. Meanwhile our research will grow in impact by combining disciplinary strength with interdisciplinary application and be distinguished by the extent to which we embed and deliver on a commitment to working in major partnerships with industry. In particular, evolving technologies of automation, personalization and big data are advancing disciplines, transforming professions and disrupting business models. QUT is beginning to build critical mass in these enabling technologies and is well positioned to differentiate its research and teaching by exploiting their application. This technological edge, coupled with our interdisciplinary culture and willingness to work with end users, represents an important competitive advantage for QUT.
Meeting all these challenges will require a sustainable and highly capable workforce, worldclass facilities, sound financial management, robust operating systems and, perhaps above all, our continuing to foster QUT’s proud sense of community and engagement with alumni.
