Governance, leadership and strategy

We are a University that makes a positive difference for Tasmanians and Tasmania and, from Tasmania, the world. Our governance, leadership and strategy are focused on ensuring we deliver and sustain this mission.

Governance and leadership

The University Council, led by the Chancellor, is the governing body of the University. It has responsibility for the overall strategy, budget, well-being and sound operation of the University.

The Council appoints the Vice-Chancellor to provide the executive leadership of the University in accordance with the strategy, budget, risk appetite and delegated authority it approves for the running of the University.
