While in some cases this may be due to the demand driven system, it may also be attributable in part to the ways in which they are managed. The authors’ recent research suggested that the amount of freedom satellite campuses have to direct their affairs needs to be linked to their market locations and profiles. The tendency, therefore, to control everything from the centre may have an adverse effect on satellite campus effectiveness. The authors outline management models currently in use at satellite campuses, along with their advantages and limitations, and argue that universities should pay serious attention to the issue of satellite campus management arrangements.  \nKeywords: university campuses, management models, effectiveness  \nSatellite campuses  \nAustralia has 41 public and private universities. Of these, 33 have at least one satellite (or branch) campus. Across the country, there are at least 60 satellite campuses that have full-time academic and administrative staff, and this number is growing. They are a substantial component of the Australian higher education scene, but little has been written about them, their contribution to the communities they serve, and their role in meeting their respective missions.  \nSome of these satellite campuses report considerable success,with expanding enrolments and satisfied students. Others are ticking over, doing more or less the same thing from year to year, and not encountering any debilitating fluctuations in demand. However, some are on the point  \nof despair, with declining enrolments, programs being withdrawn, and with diminishing confidence placed in them by their communities and among their employees.  \nMajor themes  \nWe have visited many satellite campuses or spoken at length with the key staff. While our interest has been broadly in their effectiveness, their management, and the major challenges they face, the conversations have clustered around common themes. These relate to sustaining demand, building the right program mix, and the relationship with the parent campus. It is not our purpose here to discuss the first two issues, but rather to look at how satellite campuses might best be organised. If they are well organised, we argue that they  \nvol. 57, no. 2, 2015 University satellite campus management models Doug Fraser & Ken Stott 79  \nA U S T R A L I A N U N I V E R S I T I E S ’ R E V I E W  \ngive themselves the best platform from which to sustain and increase demand, and to develop products that are attractive to the markets they serve.  \nOur understanding of effectiveness has been formed largely from our discussions with the heads of satellite campuses, with a number of vice-chancellors and other senior personnel, and from our experience as former campus heads. We know that the extent to which a satellite campus is valued in its community is an important success indicator, and so is student satisfaction. Indeed there are many other persuasive measures of effectiveness, including the economic benefits that a campus brings to its community.The focus of discussions, though, tends tobe primarily on the ability to acquire and locally manage resources, which translates into student numbers, staffing, funding and equivalent forms of support. Naturally, all these things are linked: if you give students a poor deal, word gets round, and sooner or later the numbers decline. With fewer students, there is less money to run or expand programs, so it is no surprise, therefore, that satellite campuses are, in large part, judged on their ability to attract and manage resources.  \nMa","cbCaidMFliF2jfmw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidMFliF2jfmw","pdf",98308,"English","# Satellite campuses\n## Major themes\n## Management arrangements","[{\"question\":\"What factors does the document link to satellite campus effectiveness?\",\"answer\":\"It connects effectiveness to how much freedom satellite campuses have to direct their affairs, and to the way management focuses on acquiring and locally managing resources.
