Michelle Harvey teaches human resource management and is an Academic Integrity Officer. She has collaborated with the Student Engagement Unit’s Careers Services Team to develop online career education resources and started work for UniSA as a Careers Adviser assisting students with career, employability, and job search matters. Before joining UniSA, Michelle was a career and outplacement specialist helping people transition from one career to another.
Michelle started her post-secondary studies with a Bachelor of Accountancy but became convinced her calling lay elsewhere and, with a year to go, deferred to travel around South America and South Africa and start work as a travel agent. The following year Michelle wisely chipped away at the remainder of her degree.
Michelle's career has spanned business, travel, government, human resources, consulting, and education. She has sated the travel bug with many overseas adventures and completed post-graduate studies in Neuroscience, Career Education & Development, and Education Studies (Digital Learning). She takes particular interest in changes occurring in education and the labour market due to globalisation, automation, and technology. Other areas of interest include neuroscience, psychology, climbing walls, and off-road motorbike adventures.
