This series consists of agendas, papers and copies of minutes of the Academic Board. Documents are typed and are arranged in chronological order by meeting date in folders. The agenda is presented first, followed by any papers that were circulated prior to each meeting. The papers consist of reports or other submissions to be discussed by the Board and these include a copy of the minutes from the previous meeting. For 1988 agendas and copies of minutes only are held and the University Archives is missing a copy of the 5 July 1988 minutes. Some small gaps in the holdings for the rest of this series also exist where the papers for a particular Board meeting have not been passed on to the University Archives. From February to October 1989 agendas and papers for two consecutive meetings have been kept together in one folder. From November 1989 onwards one folder corresponds to the agenda and papers of one meeting of the Board. Signed minutes for the Board's meetings are located in series 44.

The Committee was created by the Professorial Board on 8th December, 1970 (resolution 70/331). The Committee's terms of reference were to enquire into the workings of the Board and its relationship with other academic, administrative and policy making bodies in particular: i)the extent to which the Board's methods and procedures involve delay; ii)the extent to which important issues may fail to receive adequate discussion; iii)the relations between the Board and other policy making bodies, in particular the Council, the Vice-Chancellor's Advisory Committee and the Faculties; iv)possible areas of overlapping and duplication of functions between those bodies; v)the relation between the Board and its committees, especially the Executive Committee; vi)gaps in the system which make it difficult to initiate certain kinds of business; vii)possible alternative systems of academic organisation. The first meeting of the Committee was on 5th February, 1971 with Professor R. J. Walsh as Chairman. The final meeting of the Committee occurred on 7th March, 1972. The Committee's report was received by the Professorial Board on 4th April, 1972 (resolution 72/36). Controlling Organisation: UNSW - 08/12/1970-c. 04/04/1972

The Aboriginal Education Sub-Committee was formed by the Undergraduate Studies Committee of the Academic Board on 15th September, 1988 (resolution 88/14). The role of the Sub-Committee was: a) to make recommendations to the Board with a view to i)increasing the level of participation by Aboriginal people in courses of the University ii)providing appropriate academic support to Aboriginal students to enhance their prospects of academic success iii)facilitating recognition by the University of the aspirations, history, culture, and knowledge of Aboriginal people and, where appropriate, incorporating these aspects into existing disciplines. b) to make recommendations to the Vice-Chancellor through the Board as to how the University might best use money available through the Alice Brooks Gange Fund. The inaugural meeting of the Sub-Committee was on 11th October, 1988 with Professor Garth Nettheim as the Presiding Member. On 3rd September, 1992 the Undergraduate Studies Committee redesignated all of its Sub-Committees into Committees. The Aboriginal Education Sub-Committee therefore became known as the Aboriginal Education Committee. In 1994, a review of the UNSW Aboriginal Education Programs was conducted. The acceptance of recommendations 9 and 10 of the completed report resulted in the dissolution of all consultative mechanisms on Aboriginal issues, including the Aboriginal Education Committee. The final meeting of the Aboriginal Education Committee was held on 25th October, 1994. Controlling Organisation: UNSW - 15/09/1988-by 10/08/1995

The Computer Committee was created by the Professorial Board on 6th November, 1984 in place of the Computing Science Committee (resolution 84/159). The Committee adopted the following terms of reference: - to recommend on broad principles for the development of academic computing throughout the University, including the requirements specification for new or enhanced computing facilities. - to review academic proposals from faculties, where they involve either computing subject matter or the use of computer resources for teaching; - to review and advise on the operations, priorities and procedures of the Academic Computing Unit, the User Services Unit and the Systems Software Unit; - to review and advise on the effectiveness of the systems which serve the administrative functions of the schools and faculties. The first meeting of the Committee was on 8th February, 1985 with Prof. C. H. P. Brookes as Chairman. The Committee stayed in existence until the Professorial Board was supplanted by the Academic Board in July 1988. The last meeting of the Committee took place on the 2nd May, 1988.

In 1969 the Australian Government appointed a committee of overseas experts headed by Dr Richard Cyert to advise on the future needs for graduate management in Australia. On 19 January 1970 Council endorsed the beginning of negotiations for the establishment of a national graduate school of business at the university (resolution 70/13). When the Cyert Committee submitted the Report of the Committee of Inquiry into postgraduate education for management in March 1970, it advised that the University of New South Wales was the university best placed to provide the desirable environment for a national business school of the highest quality. In August 1973 the Australian Government gave its agreement for the university to begin preliminary planning for the school and the university accepted the government's offer (10 September 1973 Council resolution 73/185). On 12 November 1973 Council created an interim board of management, who were to be responsible for planning the development of the new school (resolution 73/236). On 11 March 1974 the new school was named the Australian Graduate School of Management (Council resolution 74/24ii). On 11 November 1974 Professor Philip Brown was appointed as the foundation Professor of Management and Director of the Australian Graduate School of Management (Council resolution 74/202). He took up the position on 1 January 1975 and the school began its first classes on 7 March 1977 (SRF - AGSM). On 1 June 1998 Council gave its approval to the merger of the AGSM with the University of Sydney's Graduate School of Business to form a new Australian Graduate School of Management as a joint venture between the two universities, effective from the first academic term in 1999 (resolution 98/38). On 11 November 2005 it was announced that the University of Sydney had decided to cease its participation in the AGSM joint venture with UNSW. Consequently AGSM reverted to being solely owned by UNSW (SRF - AGSM). On 3 July 2006 Council approved the disestablishment of the Australian Graduate School of Management, subject to the approval of the Academic Board. The Faculty was to be amalgamated with the Faculty of Commerce & Economics to form the new Faculty of Business. The Board approved this on 1 August 2006 (resolution AB06/91) and at the Board's 7 November 2006 meeting, it noted that the Faculty of Commerce & Economics and the Australian Graduate School of Management should be considered to have ceased to have the functions and powers of faculties after [the first Faculty Board meeting of the Faculty of Business on Thursday 23 November 2006]' (resolution AB06/139). Thus the AGSM as a business unit ceased operations, although courses under the AGSM brand continued operation after this date within the Faculty of Business.

This series includes agendas, papers and minutes of the Australian Graduate School of Management Board of Studies, as well as its Executive Committee and Higher Degree Committee. The material is typed and is maintained in manilla folders. Documents are generally arranged in chronological order, but occasionally minutes and papers from a later meeting date have been placed prior to items from an earlier meeting. The minutes are normally presented first, followed by the agenda and any papers that were circulated prior to the meeting. The minutes indicate meeting date, time and place; those present and apologies; matters discussed and resolutions passed by the Board. The papers consist of reports or other submissions to be discussed by the Board. A large proportion of minutes have been signed as approved by the Chairman at a subsequent Board meeting. For some meetings, however, the University Archives only holds copies of the minutes - not the official signed versions. At the 23 October 2000 meeting of the AGSM Academic Board, changes to AGSM's committees were approved. The AGSM committee structure was therefore altered to embody a Faculty Board, a Standing Committee, a Research Committee and a Postgraduate Coursework Education Committee) (resolution ACB00/01). The new Committee structure was implemeted from May 2001 and items in this series thus ceased to be created from that date.

The New South Wales University of Technology Council was established under the Technical Education & New South Wales University of Technology Act, 1949, which came into effect on 1st July, 1949 (Act No. 11, 1949). The Council was based on the Developmental Council and seventeen members of this developing body became members of the final Council. Six others made up the rest of the inaugural Council membership, bringing the initial number to twenty-three, although under the Act the Council could hold a maximum of thirty (Act No. 11, 1949, 19(2)). Council members were appointed by the Governor (Act No. 11, 1949, 19(2)) and included individuals from Parliament, industry and commerce, trade unions, the University of Sydney, professionals and technical education (Act No. 11, 1949, 19(2)). The Act (No. 11, 1949, 25) also stated that the Council: a) may provide courses in applied science, engineering, technology, commerce, industrial organisation and such other related courses as it deems fit and may, after examination, confer the several degrees of Bachelor, Master and Doctor, and such other degrees and such certificates in the nature of degrees or otherwise as it thinks fit; b) may from time to time appoint deans, professors, lecturers and other officers and employees of the University; c) shall have the entire control and management of the affairs, concerns and property of the University; and d) may act in all matters concerning the University in such manner as appears to it best calculated to promote the objects and interests of the University. As well, the Act affirmed that the titles of the principal officers of Council were President, Vice-President and Director. The inaugural meeting of Council took place on 6th July, 1949, with Wallace Charles Wurth as President and Arthur Denning as Director. At the meeting Dr. R. W. Harman was elected Vice-President of the University (resolution 1). At the second meeting of Council, held on 12th September, 1949, the University by-laws were approved (resolution 5). These determined that Council should meet on the second Monday of March, May, July, September and November in each year, unless a special meeting was called by the President or on a written request by five members (Chapter II, 1-3). The by-laws also established that elections would occur in May, 1950 for the first members of Council to represent the teaching staff (Chapter II, 13), the undergraduates (Chapter II, 22) and the three principal faculties (Chapter II, 8). As well, the by-laws affirmed that the initial member of Council to be chosen by graduates would occur in May, 1953 (Chapter II, 15). Further, the by-laws created the fundamentals for the Professorial Board (Chapter III, 1). The 12th September, 1949 meeting also saw the formulation of three Committees of Council. Under resolution 17 the Executive, Buildings & Equipment and Public Relations Committees were all established, each with six members. A Library Committee was then created on 13th November, 1950 (resolution 89) and a Newcastle University College Advisory Committee on 8th March, 1954 (resolution 391(i)). As well, an Applied Arts Sub-Committee of the Buildings & Equipment Committee was formed on 11th May, 1953 (resolution 316vii). A special Council meeting on 29th March, 1954 passed resolution 405(i) on the Appointed Day, which was approved by the Governor and proclaimed on 1st July, 1954. Under clause 33 of the 1949 Act, after the Appointed Day the Council was invested with powers previously held by the Public Service Board and given its autonomy. As a result, resolution 405(i) also established two new Committees - the Academic Committee and the Appeals Committee, as well as two Sub-Committees of the Executive Committee - Finance and Personnel. Major alterations occurred to Council in 1955, with the passing of the Technical Education & New South Wales University of Technology (Amendment) Act (No. 8, 1955). The names of the President, Vice-President and Director were changed to the Chancellor, Deputy Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor respectively (Act No. 8, 1955, 3(1)). The number and constitution of the Council membership was also varied. The maximum number of members rose from thirty to thirty-nine with the addition of the Chairman of the Professorial Board, two representatives of agricultural, pastoral and rural interests, and an increase in the number of graduate members to a possible seven (Act No. 8, 1955, 4(1)). The name of the New South Wales University of Technology was altered to the University of New South Wales in 1958 under the University of New South Wales Act, 1958 (No. 24, 1958). Consequently the original objectives of Council were altered slightly to allow the approval of non-technological courses and research (Act No. 24, 1958, 2(d)). In 1961 more changes occurred to Council under the University of New South Wales Act, 1961 (No. 49, 1961). Membership numbers of Council increased from thirty-nine to forty, by adding one more member of the professions to Council (Act No. 49, 1961, 2(b)i-ii). Variations to the Council's various Committees also took place. On 12th March, 1962 the Newcastle University College Council was formed in place of the Newcastle University College Advisory Committee (resolution 62/45). The Newcastle University College Council eventually ceased to exist when the University of Newcastle was given its autonomy on 1st January, 1965 and obtained its own independent Council. Similarly, on 11th September, 1961 the Wollongong University College Advisory Committee was established (resolution 61/135), later being replaced by the Wollongong University College Council on 20th January, 1969 (resolution 69/28i), with autonomy occurring on 1st January, 1975. The last meeting of the Council's Library Committee was held on 27th April, 1962, as it was felt that since the Professorial Board also maintained a Committee that supervised the Library in a similar fashion the Council Committee was no longer needed. Then at the 8th July, 1963 meeting of Council a Student Affairs Committee was formed (resolution 63/134). In 1968, the University of New South Wales Act, 1968 (Act No. 37, 1968) was passed. This Act repealed the previous two University Acts and much of the 1949 and 1955 Acts, especially those parts relating to Council. Most of the new Act remained similar to the old, but along with its earlier four terms of reference, Council was given the extra proviso that it may invest any funds belonging to or vested in the University in such securities as may be prescribed by the by-laws (Act No. 37, 1968, 14d). The method of appointing a new Vice-Chancellor was also changed under the 1968 Act, with Council being provided with the power to select both the official and the period of time that the position would be held (Act No. 37, 1968, 15(4-5)). Further, the Act stipulated more precisely those making up the membership of Council, with section 8(2) stating that Council would consist of a) parliamentary members; b) official members; c) elected members; and d) nominated members and only the nominated members were now appointed by the Governor (8(6)). Council numbers also rose to forty-one, as the Act allowed for another member to be nominated from the professions (Act No. 37, 1968, 6a). Only two years later the makeup of Council was altered again, under the University of New South Wales (Amendment) Act, 1970 (Act No. 75, 1970). The number of Council members was increased to forty-three. This occurred through an addition of two more faculties who could elect members (5d) and two more student members (5A), as well as the reduction of those members from the professions (6a) and those nominated by the Minister (6e). The Council's Committees also underwent variations. The Applied Arts Sub-Committee held its last meeting on the 29th June, 1970. It was then re-titled and reformed into the Fine Arts Sub-Committee at the 12th May, 1975 Council meeting (resolution 75/81). The membership of Council was next altered under the University of New South Wales (Amendment) Act, 1978 (Act No. 170, 1978). Council numbers rose to forty-four with the introduction of a member representing the non-academic staff of the University (Act No. 170, 1978, 5e). Under this Act the members classified as nominated became appointed members (section 8(2)d), whilst the official charged with accepting these members was changed from the Governor to the Minister (section 6). The 1978 Act as well defined more distinctly the type of fees and charges that could be formulated by the Council for the University (section 20). New Committees also continued to be formed. On 13th July, 1981 an Honorary Degrees Committee was established (resolution 81/109). Then on 13th September, 1982, a University Union Liaison Committee was created, as a Sub-Committee of the Student Affairs Committee (resolution 82/120). In 1984 and 1985 two University of New South Wales (Amendment) Acts (Act No. 15, 1984 & Act No. 81, 1985) provided for other changes take place in Council. The 1984 Act regulated the type of investments that Council was permitted to undertake for the University (section 14A-E). The 1985 Act greatly modified the makeup of Council. Under this Act the Council was reduced to twenty-nine, with there now being only six graduates, four faculty appointees and eight nominees of the Minister on the Council. The professorial representatives did, however, rise from one to two members. At the 11th May, 1987 meeting the Council passed a resolution (87/55) to change the by-laws to stipulate new times that the Council would meet. As a result of these variations, from 1988 the Council meetings took place in the months February, April, June, August, October and December on a Monday to be determined by the Council (by-laws Chapter II, 1). More alterations occurred to the Council under the University of New South Wales Act 1989 (Act No. 125, 1989). The number of members was decreased to twenty-one. Consequently, Council was then made up of two parliamentary members, three official members, four academic staff representatives, one non-academic staff nominees, one undergraduate student, one postgraduate student, four graduates and one member to be co-opted by Council (Act No. 125, 1989, 9). Under this Act (Act No. 125, 1989, 15(1)), the Council: a) may provide such courses, and may confer such degrees and award such diplomas and other certificates, as it thinks fit; b) may appoint and terminate the appointment of academic and other staff of the University; c) has the control and management of the affairs and concerns of the University and may act in all matters concerning the University in such manner as appears to it to be best calculated to promote the objects and interests of the University; d) may borrow money for the purpose of exercising any of its functions, for the renewal of loans or for the discharge or partial discharge of any indebtedness to the Treasurer or to any bank, within such limits, to such extent and on such conditions as to security or otherwise as the Governor, on the recommendation of the Treasurer, may approve; e) may invest any funds belonging to or vested in the University; f) may establish or participate in such trusts, companies or other incorporated bodies as it considers appropriate to promote the objects and interests of the University; g) may engage in the commercial development of any discovery or invention, or of any intellectual property in which the University has a right or interest; h) may establish and maintain branches and colleges of the University, within the University and elsewhere; i) may make loans and grants to students; and j) may impose fees, charges and fines. As a result of these alterations, changes were made to the Council's Committees. At the 4th June, 1990 Council meeting it was resolved to disestablish all of the current Standing Committees from 1st July, 1990 and form new Committees (CL 90/45). These were the Chancellor's Committee, the Finance Committee, the Planning Committee, the Student Affairs Committee, the Appeals Committee and the Honorary Degrees Committee. Soon afterwards, however, on 4th November, 1991, the necessity of the Appeals Committee was removed (CL 91/69b), although it was not formally disestablished until 26th August, 2002 (CL002/74ai). On 29th June, 1992 an Audit Committee was created by the Council (CL 92/42). Section 28 of the 1989 Act allowed the Council to compose Rules with the same force as by-laws. Accordingly in 1996 when a new By-Law was passed, a set of Rules were also approved by Council. These Rules contained some of the procedural details that had previously been listed in the by-laws. One major change to Council organisation within the Rules was regarding the times of meetings, as Council was now permitted to meet on at least 6 occasions in each year to be determined by the Council and on such other days as may be necessary for the despatch of business (1). Further changes also occurred to Council committees. At the 26th August, 2002 meeting of the Council the Planning Committee was disestablished. At the same time, the Buildings and Grounds Committee was created, with effect from 27th August, 2002. The Risk Management Committee was established at the 14 April 2003 Council meeting, while the Nominations & Remuneration Committee was created at the 26 July 2004 meeting. At the 3 July 2006 meeting of Council, the Building & Grounds and Chancellor's Committees were disestablished. At the 18 April 2011 meeting of Council, the name of the Risk Management Committee was changed to the Risk Committee. The Student Affairs Committee was disestablished by UNSW Council at its meeting on 20 August 2012. In 2013 the Chancellor of the University was Mr David Gonski, the Deputy Chancellor was Ms Jillian Segal and the Vice-Chancellor Professor Fred Hilmer.

The School of Modern Language Studies was established within the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences at the 31 October 1994 meeting of Council, to be effective from 1 January 1995 (resolution CL94/86c). It replaced the previous schools of French, German & Russian Studies, Spanish & Latin American Studies and the Languages Unit. Initially the school contained the departments of Chinese & Indonesian, French, German & Russian Studies and Spanish & Latin American Studies, as well as the sections of Hebrew and Modern Greek. The first Head of School was John Brotherton. As part of a Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences restructure, the School of Modern Language Studies was re-named the School of Languages and Linguistics effective 31 January 2007 (6 February 2007 Academic Board papers). As part of this restructure, it was deemed that no school was to establish a departmental structure (Principles of Government-Feb 2007 in SRF - Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences) and discipline advisors were instead created for each area of study. On 1 November 2011 the Academic Board recommended that the name of the school be changed to the School of International Studies effective from 1 January 2012 (resolution AB11/141). This was approved by the Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor and President of the Academic Board on 15 November 2011 (file 2011/06825). At its meeting on 4 December 2012, the Academic Board resolved (resolution AB12/80) that it be recommended that the Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor and President of the Academic Board approve: (i) The establishment of the School of Humanities and Languages, and as a concomitant action, (ii) The disestablishment of the School of Humanities and the School of International Studies, in the Facutty of Arts and Social Sciences, effective 1 July 2013. This was approved via e-mail on 19 December 2012 (file 2011/02865).
