“Cultivating the next generation of leaders from among early and mid-career researchers requires the University to support women at Levels A and B to complete doctoral qualifications and develop their research output and profile. Measures will be introduced to address barriers to progression for all equity groups, especially women. In particular, the University recognises that RQF exercises have produced unwelcome consequences for gender equity in other countries. We must avoid such outcomes for staff at the University of Melbourne.”
