Candidates' statements
Sara Denize
I am the Associate Dean (Education) at the UTS Business School, Chair of the Courses Accreditation Committee (2019-2022) and an ex-officio member of Academic Board and its Executive Committee.
Over the last three years, I have been privileged to work collaboratively with many academic colleagues and Faculty teams on their course accreditation projects. As Chair of Academic Board, I would hope to continue this collaborative journey, bringing to the fore issues of vital importance for the academy, our students and our communities.
As the main advisory body to UTS Council on academic matters, the connections we create on Academic Board will ensure greater inclusion in the development of the university’s academic direction as it aligns with our strategy. To this end, I hope to strengthen the links with Faculty Boards, particularly in the joint work of overseeing quality in all aspects of academic endeavour.

I have completed a two year term as Chair of the Academic Board. It has been an interesting time, as we come out of COVID and endeavour to keep the University’s missions of teaching, research and engagement on target. This year, we are applying to TEQSA for reaccreditation, and grappling with learning, teaching, assessment in this new phase of our existence.
In addition to maintaining the business of the Board, we organised the 2021 Academic Board Forum on Climate Change, and are about to hold one on Global and International Initiatives. I have strengthened links between the Academic Board and Faculty Boards, implemented a solution to the terms of elected student members, and represented the Board on Council. I have also been Chair of the Committee of Chairs of NSW Academic Boards, organised a national meeting of Chairs in November, and served on the ATAR review committee for NSW.
