In Australia, there have also been significant changes to the regulation of universities through the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Association (TEQSA). In this paper, and those that follow in this special edition, we examine a comprehensive program to improve the outcomes for students and to enhance the effectiveness of learning and teaching at Macquarie University, Australia.
