The University has developed UWS and School KPI targets (PDF, 189Kb) (opens in a new window) for the period of 2010 to 2015 in support of the UWS postgraduate students targeted full-time equivalent enrolments (load).


There are a number of key factors that will influence achievement of the UWS postgraduate targeted enrolments (load). These factors are important individually and in combination, and are:

  • Internal funding increased to enable funding of both domestic and international HRD scholarships
  • Continuation of targeted Honours Scholarship program
  • Increase available supervisors in all disciplines
