ABOUT THE TENDER

This proposal addresses a need identified by the University and the Faculty of Arts, Business, Law, & Education ("ABLE") to improve student experience and accommodate future growth of ABLE Higher Degree by Research ("HDR") Students.

The University of Adelaide highly values HDR students and they provide significant value to our research-intensive institution. Their contributions extend far beyond the boundaries of the academic realm, enriching the institution's intellectual, scientific, and societal pillars.

To address HDR space weaknesses in the current School of Education HDR workplace accommodation and improve HDR experience, the University and the Faculty of ABLE has proposed the creation of a school based HDR hub facility.

The new facility will act as a workspace, research, and collaborative space for School of Education HDR students to complete their research projects. It will also accommodate future HDR growth with facilities to allow the adoption of agile workspace principles to enable flexibility to accommodate fluctuations in student numbers.
