Australian Government Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency
In the context of the Higher Education Standards Framework 2021, facilities and infrastructure refer to the resources used for educational and research purposes, with 'facilities' referring to the learning environments, including both physical and digital learning environments, intended to promote and facilitate the learning outcomes and educational activities of students and staff and 'infrastructure' referring to both physical and digital resources such as classrooms, lecture theatres, internet, e-learning/digital platforms and laboratories used by students and staff. The purpose of the relevant standards is to ensure: (1) facilities and infrastructure are fit for purpose; (2) students and staff have access to digital information and communication services; and (3) a supportive, safe, and inclusive learning environment. This report discusses these standards and the issues of facilities and infrastructure in Australian higher education.
