2002: Summary

This report provides a summary of research and related activities in the School of Economics in 2002. In 2002, the School of Economics, once again, performed outstandingly. The publication list of the School is long and extensive, and includes articles in a range of premier academic journals. In addition to research publications, several influential textbooks were also published. What is striking when examining the School’s publication list is its diversity and the interdisciplinary nature of much of the research that is reported. Peer review comparisons of economics departments often downgrade articles

that are interdisciplinary or in emerging areas of the discipline. At UQ, we value highly and encourage innovative approaches to economics. We also feel that it is important that economics is accessible to those working in other disciplines and to policy-makers. In this latter regard, the Centre for Economic Policy Modelling continued to make a strong impact in 2002. An indication of the academic standing of a School in specialist fields is in the number of journals that are edited by its staff. In 2002, no less than five academic journals were edited in the School: the Journal of Economic Psychology, edited by Peter Earl, the Journal of Productivity Analysis, edited by Tim Coelli, the Australasian Journal of Regional Studies, edited by John Mangan and Guy West, Economic Analysis and Policy, edited by Alan Duhs and Tony Makin; the Journal of Aquaculture Economics and Management, edited by Clem Tisdell. Twelve competitive research grants provided external funding for research in 2002. A good balance between Australian Research Council grants and government/industry funding can be discerned in the list of funding sources. The School continued to be a major provider of research training in economics. In 2002, there were seventy-two PhD candidates in the School, of which ten graduated. Research and teaching are highly complementary activities. In 2002, well over 100 courses were offered by the School at all levels. This is the most comprehensive and diverse range of economics courses offered in Australia in that year. The main national survey of graduate experiences (CEQ) in 2002 placed the School in the top two in the Australian Group of Eight research intensive universities in terms of overall satisfaction amongst graduates who were awarded a degree in the field of economics in 2001.

Mission Statement

MISSION The School of Economics is committed to maintaining a high standard in economic research, teaching, community service and professional service. Research Objectives • To develop research capabilities across the broad range of economics of

particular benefit to Queensland and Australia. • To develop expertise in selected areas of research in which the School aims

to have a leading Australian or international position. • To work in emerging, or ‘frontier’, areas of theoretical and empirical research. • Towards these ends, the School seeks to maintain a high publication rate in

refereed journals and other publication of academic and professional significance. It will reward staff according to research performance and will appoint staff committed to fostering research. The School will promote research in collaboration with other universities and research bodies.

Teaching Objectives • To maintain the highest standards in teaching, in the development and

transmission of knowledge and of research skills. • To reward staff with high levels of teaching performance and graduate

supervision. • The School emphasises both rigour in economic analysis and comprehensive

training in the application of economic statistics. It offers a range of courses necessary to ensure that our students receive a high quality degree and will be employable in both the public and private sectors.

Community and Professional Service • To provide community services in the economics area, particularly in

Queensland, in fulfilment of our professional obligations to the community. Community service can be shown in several ways. For example, by appropriate types of contract research, consulting, contributions to conferences dealing with community issues, radio and newspaper contributions.

• The School recognises its prominence as a professional teaching and research body in Queensland, and the obligations this brings in providing professional leadership in the State and, where appropriate, nationally and internationally.


GOALS The Mission Statement leads to the following specific goals that form the basis of the School’s Strategic Plan.

1 To produce high quality research and scholarship and to publish in internationally refereed journals.

2 To maintain the highest academic standards in all our teaching programs.

3 To produce a strong flow of the highest quality professional and academic economists from our BEcon Honours, Masters by coursework, PhD and MPhil programs.

4 To produce a strong flow of BEcon graduates with economic skills that will make them highly effective and successful in a range of managerial, administrative and advisory occupations.

5 To ensure excellence in teaching in all our undergraduate and graduate programs.

6 To be recognised internationally as a ‘top three’ School of Economics in Australia.

7 To meet the needs of other Schools in the University for economics instruction in their respective programs in a responsive and innovative way.

8 To provide high quality information and advice to the University, the community and the economics profession.

9 To maintain a close and ongoing relationship with our alumni through participation in alumni events and the dissemination of materials informing alumni of activities and developments in the School.

10 To efficiently manage the resources of the School and to ensure financial viability in the future.
