Peter Dawkins

Peter Dawkins was Vice-Chancellor and President of Victoria University from 2011 to 2020, where he introduced the revolutionary ‘block model’ of teaching and learning. In 2014 he wrote Reconceptualising Tertiary Education, an influential paper that resulted in a program of work at the Mitchell Institute led by Peter Noonan. In 2021 Dawkins jointly led a federal government review of University-Industry Collaboration in Teaching and Learning, which argued for reforms and initiatives to strengthen connections between industries and tertiary education.
