Interdisciplinary collaboration
To find and implement solutions to the world’s most pressing problems, the University’s institutes bring together researchers from various disciplines with policymakers and industry and community practitioners and stakeholders.
The Faculty of Science hosts six institutes:
Partner programs
Our Faculty simultaneously collaborates with hundreds of partners on projects of every scale, including discovery research, knowledge and technology transfer, technical advice and services, and training. Below are just a few examples of our large, long-term partnership programs.
ARC Centre Of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics
The ARC Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics brings together experts from across Australia and internationally to unlock the secrets of dark matter and foster the science and engineering leaders of the future.
ARC Research Hub for Advanced Manufacturing with 2D Materials
At the ARC Research Hub for Advanced Manufacturing with 2D Materials (AM2D), Australian and international research and industry partners develop novel 2D materials for water treatment, batteries, functional coatings and other key areas of economic and technological interest.
Forest restoration for economic outcomes
Working with the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), the Forest Restoration for Economic Outcomes project aims to inform and improve policy and practice in forest restoration by refining ecological theories that describe how forests re-assemble under various disturbance conditions.
Isotopic techniques to assess the fate of antimicrobials and implications for antimicrobial resistance in agricultural systems
A collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency, this project aims to improve understanding of the dynamics and persistence of antimicrobials and antimicrobial resistance in agricultural systems, using nuclear and related techniques.
Partner with us
We are always looking for new collaborators to:
- drive basic or applied research
- develop intellectual property and commercial products or services
- inform policy and provide independent advice at the forefront of science and technology
- broaden access to world-class facilities and technical expertise
- build capacity and competitiveness through education and training.
