Abstract
The University of the South Pacific adopted the Research Skills Development (RSD) framework in 2012 in its efforts
to lift the research capacity of the region following its Strategic Total Academic Review (STAR) process. The
adaptation was aimed at explicitly teaching critical research skills to university graduates and ultimately lifting the research capacity of the Pacific. The implementation process saw curriculum reform, which included the explicit development and assessment of research skills from the first year of study and flowing through to all subsequent years. Now, six years since the initial implementation, this paper looks at what worked, what didn’t, and what must evolve. The paper outlines the project implementation process, challenges, and associated costs.
