Mapping the Graduate Attributes

The Murdoch Graduate Attributes were accepted by Academic Council in May 2000 and revised in late 2003. It was decided that all Divisions should identify the Graduate Attributes achievable in each major.

With the intention of integrating Graduate Attributes into core units across all programs of study Academic Council requested Divisions to map part 1 and part 2 units against each attribute including, for each unit, the objectives, content, learning activities and assessment relative to the attributes.

A web-based mapping tool has been developed by the Teaching and Learning Centre (TLC) to facilitate the task of mapping graduate attributes to units.

The Graduate Attributes mapping tool

The TLC has provided some resources on the mapping process to assist your understanding of mapping graduate attributes. This information is from educational texts, and is intended as a guide.

The mapping process    Links within the web page are as follows.

If you require assistance with the mapping process, or would like to comment on the list of nine attributes, please email graduateattributes@murdoch.edu.au.

Points to remember

  • Map your units for the year.
  • You are not expected to cover all of the Graduate Attributes in one unit.
  • The map you create will be collated by your Program Chair or DEO.
  • Map what you will actually be doing, not what you would ideally do.
  • You may need to reconfigure your unit objectives, content, learning activities and assessment in the light of the Graduate Attributes.
  • There is no one correct way to map your unit(s).
