The Higher Education Technology Agenda (THETA)

THETA is Australasia’s leading biennial IT conference for professionals working in higher education and research and eResearch. THETA brings together the sector's brightest minds and serves as an exciting forum to showcase ideas, research and best practice, gain new ways of thinking, and collaborate with like-minded contemporaries.

The Theme

The dawn of AI, cybersecurity threats and digital learning are signals of our modern times, but their arrival is nothing new. Higher education has always been confronted by advances in technology, legislation, and evolving ways of student learning – it’s just that now, their impact is more immediate.

If change is our sector’s only constant, THETA 2025 asks how we can better prepare for, and embrace it with our 2025 theme, ‘Winds of Change’.

Speakers

THETA boasts a line-up of esteemed experts and speakers from institutions across Australia, New Zealand and the world. Through a mix of presentations, panel discussions and workshops, the conference is designed to offer solutions and best practice, highlighting how the intelligent use of information technology can enhance and improve the wider industry for students and staff.

The Venue

THETA 2025 will be held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. Perth is known for its sunshine, natural beauty and relaxed pace. Discover the laid-back charms of Western Australia's capital city while connecting and collaborating with colleagues from across the sector.
