  • Of the 36 publicly-funded universities, six will require some assistance in 2005. These institutions have traditionally been funded at a higher rate in comparison to other institutions offering the same disciplines. The new arrangements ensure that institutions offering the same discipline are funded on the same basis. It is a fairer, more transparent funding framework, which means that the contribution from the Commonwealth for a student in the same course in Perth, Newcastle and Adelaide is the same. Three other institutions (ANU, AMC and Batchelor) would be treated differently as their funding is currently anomalous with other universities.

Figures include total operating plus marginal funding and workplace reform funding where appropriate. Over enrolment has been proportioned between Cluster 1 to 6.
