Higher Education Participation and Partnerships report

The Higher Education Participation and Partnership Program (HEPPP) replaces the Equity Support Program that has been in place since the early 1990s. HEPPP is made up of Component A (based on current low SES student numbers) and Component B (based on an equal share basis between all universities). The University has utlised this funding for both centrally coordinated and faculty based activities and projects.
