Types of partnerships
Industry partnerships
We have developed numerous partnerships with business, government agencies, not-for-profit organisations, and community groups.
While each partnership is unique, all are based on identifying solutions to the issues facing our partners.
Research partnerships
Partnerships can take many forms, from developing new research centres that address under-served industry needs to undertaking high-profile research projects or conducting commercially sensitive research consultancy work.
Research centres
Long-lasting, mutually beneficial partnerships form the backbone of many of our research centres. Developing new or supporting existing research centres ensures that our research aligns with industry needs and priorities.
Research projects
We partner with organisations to conduct research projects on issues of mutual interest. Project outcomes serve the needs of our partner while enhancing our reputation through academic publications.
PhD projects
PhD students often receive support from partners to examine less time-sensitive issues. These partnerships also involve a team of experienced researchers who supervise the PhD student and the project more generally.
Research consultancy
Research consultancy work can be undertaken for partners seeking commercial in-confidence research outcomes.
