At ACU we pride ourselves on offering a welcoming environment for everyone. At the same time, we are a university committed to standing for something clear. We stand up for people in need and causes that matter. ACU’s Mission is central to the University and informs every area – integrating the dignity of the human person, the common good, and ethical and social justice considerations into our core activities of student learning and teaching, research and service. We are a publicly funded university which has grown rapidly over the past few years. We’re young, but we are making our mark: ranking among the top universities worldwide. We have eight campuses around Australia, more than 200 partner universities on six continents, and a campus in Rome, Italy. We know that our people make us a university like no other. It’s your values, action and passion that makes the difference. Whatever role you may play in our organisation: it’s what you do that defines who we are. We value staff, offering excellent leave and employment conditions, and foster work environments where they have the ability to grow and develop. We continue to invest in our facilities and workplaces, and actively involve staff in shaping the future direction of the organisation. Each portfolio consists of several Faculties, Research Institutes or Directorates. The Vice President drives both the Identity and the Mission of the University. In addition, five Associate Vice-Chancellors and Campus Deans focus on the University’s local presence and development of the University at the local ‘campus’ level. For further information about the University please refer to the Organisation Chart. All our staff contribute to the achievement of our goals set out in the Strategic Plan 2020-2023 and aim to provide high quality services with a strong focus on service excellence. Several frameworks and standards also express the University’s expectations of conduct, capability, participation and contribution of staff.
