How can we provide a truly personalised UNSW experience for students and staff by 2025?

We place great emphasis and value on providing a positive and rewarding experience for our students at UNSW. Student experience is of course not just something that happens in the classroom, but is continually composed of many thousands of individual contact points over their time with us. 

It can be difficult to see the possible connections between these interactions to fully take advantage of everything on offer and tailor the UNSW experience to truly meet individual needs. Each student and staff member is unique, so how can we better help them succeed in such a complex environment?

In this presentation, Professor Simon McIntyre begins to explore how we might begin to use our data to be proactive rather than reactive, what personalisation of an entire UNSW experience might actually mean, what benefits it might bring to the people in our community, and what questions we might need to keep in mind along the way.
