Induction Website introduction

I would like to welcome you to the staff of Murdoch University. At Murdoch we place great value on our teaching staff, and want to support you in your desire to teach well.

As you may be aware, as indicated by the 'Good Universities Guide,' Murdoch has received a 5 star rating, 10 out of the last 11 years, for student satisfaction. In essence, this means that Murdoch and its teachers are rated very highly by their students. Murdoch is of-course very keen to maintain this exceptional standard, and look forward to you being involved in maintaining this benchmark.

We have many options available to assist you as you pursue your teaching career, as you will see from this website, and we are always happy to receive feedback.

I wish you the best of luck with your teaching at Murdoch University and hope that you will find it an excellent experience
