A shared sense of purpose, together with a common set of values, is fundamental to a rewarding culture.
Following University-wide consultation with staff and students, four core values have emerged: Integrity, Courage, Innovation and Excellence, and above all, an ethos that is Student Centred.
"Together, these core values and underlying ethos define the way we carry out our work and study, inform the decisions we make, underpin the policies we develop, and guide how we interact with each other and our stakeholders.
They are common touchstones that shape our shared culture and the foundations upon which our future success is built."
"Our underlying ethos of being student centred is a distinguishing feature of the Flinders experience is the measure by which we judge the impact of innovation in teaching and support."
