The confidence-competence paradox
This study examines a critical phenomenon in Australian higher education: the disconnect between university leaders’ self-reported confidence and experience in Indigenous contexts. Drawing on data from a national survey and in-depth interviews with 41 university executives, we identify a confidence-competence paradox in which leaders express high confidence in engaging with Indigenous peoples and communities despite limited direct experience. In …
Enhancing civic engagement and Indigenous knowledge integration in Australian universities
Australian universities operate within a national context defined by ongoing disparities in Indigenous outcomes, as outlined by the ‘Closing the Gap’ framework. This paper argues that a fundamental change is necessary in how these institutions conceptualise and practice civic engagement, as well as moving towards incorporating Indigenous knowledges. By analysing existing Indigenous Strategy and Indigenous Research Strategies across Australian uni…
Measuring social determinants influencing Australian university students’ completion
Introduction This study compares the 5-factor and 4-factor models of the Higher Education Success Factor (HESF) framework.

Indigenous higher degree by research students’ retention and completion
Indigenous higher degree by research (HDR) students encounter persistent barriers within academia that impede their completion rates. This scoping review identified 17 papers published between 2016 and 2022 that relate to retention or completion rates of Indigenous HDR. Papers identified are from Australia, United States, New Zealand and Canada, and most of them have at least one Indigenous author. Two research questions guided this process: (1) …

Supervision plays an integral role in the success of higher degree by research (HDR) students. A vital component of a successful research degree is quality supervision. In this paper, we explore supervisors’ understanding of Indigenous HDR students’ expectations and compare them with Indigenous HDR students’ expectations of their supervisors. This study is part of a larger study which included six phases of data collection, however, this paper fo…
