Funded through Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage schemes, the Faculty is home to two ARC Industrial Transformation Research Hubs and two ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centres:
These Research Hubs engage Australia's best researchers in issues facing the new industrial economies and training the future workforce. The scheme supports collaborative research activity, between the Australian higher education sector and industry, designed to focus on strategic outcomes that are not independently realisable.
These centres foster close partnerships between university-based researchers and other research end-users to provide innovative Higher Degree by Research (HDR) and postdoctoral training, for end-user focused research industries that are vital to Australia's future.
