Empowering our People with Perspectives, Tools and Knowledge
We will develop a community of strong but collaboratively-minded individuals by supporting our people and fostering opportunities for development through a variety of learning models, flexible offerings, work- integrated programs and unique experiential learning and research opportunities.
The School will provide a transformative learning environment that is equipped with modern technology, systems and spaces for innovative ideas to be formed and to prosper. We have the ultimate goal of developing scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs who can contribute critical knowledge, leadership to society and make positive change.
Through a combination of partnerships with leading universities and employers, working in interdisciplinary teams and researching alongside community groups, these experiences prepare us all for a new tomorrow. A place where every learner, with their individual strengths and weaknesses, can find a path to explore growth opportunities on their lifelong learning journey.
