Guidance Note: "Scholarship." Version 3.0
Australian Government Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency
In the context of the "Higher Education Standards Framework (Threshold Standards) 2021" (HES Framework), 'scholarship' refers to those activities concerned with gaining new or improved understanding, or appreciation and insights into a field of knowledge, or engaging with and keeping up to date with advances in the field. The Australian Government Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) acknowledges that notions of scholarship may vary within and amongst providers and that the mission and category of the provider may influence the type of scholarship practised. TEQSA also recognises the diverse strategies used to develop, support and sustain scholarship, both at the institutional level and for individual staff. This report presents the following guidance for Scholarship from TEQSA: (1) What does scholarship encompass?; (2) What TEQSA will look for; and (3) Common issues.
