1. Advance knowledge by identifying and explaining the nature of Australian students’ learning in and engagement with the Indo-Pacific through the NCP program;
2. Analyse whether and how their learning and engagement with the region affects their identity, career directions and future;
3. Identify the broader social impacts of Australian student mobility to the Indo-Pacific;
4. Identify the implications of the findings for government and institutional policy and practice for maximising the potential benefits and impacts of students’ learning in and engagement with the region.
