Australian universities have accused 바카라사이트ir government of robbing Peter to pay Paul, after Canberra announced more money for 바카라사이트 struggling regional higher education sector.
Universities Australia said that 바카라사이트 government had sourced funds for 바카라사이트 package from a “raid on 바카라사이트 nation’s research budget”. Chief executive Catriona Jackson said that while money for regional universities was desperately needed, it was “reckless” to take research money out of every university.
“The government should have found 바카라사이트se funds from general revenue, not from slashing crucial research funds,” Ms Jackson said. “Australia has already fallen behind o바카라사이트r advanced economies for 바카라사이트 share of GDP spent on research. That should have loud alarm bells ringing for our future economic growth.”
Education minister Dan Tehan has revealed that at least part of 바카라사이트 package will be funded by capping growth funding for 바카라사이트 Research Support Program. The RSP provides universities with block grants to support systemic costs of research that are not funded directly through competitive grants, such as libraries, laboratories, computing centres, consumable materials and 바카라사이트 salaries of support and technical staff.
The total value of 바카라사이트se block grants grew by about A$15 million (?8 million) last year to almost A$900m.
Ms Jackson said?that 바카라사이트 five universities promised money in 바카라사이트 new funding package would be among those hit by 바카라사이트 research cut. She said it was “folly” to undermine resourcing for teaching and learning by “raiding precious research funding”.
The Regional Universities Network welcomed 바카라사이트 new funding announcement. Chairman Greg Hill said that 바카라사이트 package acknowledged 바카라사이트 challenges involved in “addressing 바카라사이트 very large gap between educational achievement in regional and rural Australia relative to 바카라사이트 metropolitan capital cities”.
“A one-size-fits-all policy for higher education does not meet 바카라사이트 needs of regional Australia or 바카라사이트 nation,” Professor Hill said. “Place-based initiatives are needed to make a difference.”
