鈥淓ntering a new partnership, be it with industry, government or a not-for-profit, is always an exciting time, but it鈥檚 the path that collaboration takes us along 鈥 the problems we solve, the jobs we create and the global change we affect 鈥 that motivates us.鈥
-聽Professor Dane McCamey,聽Pro Vice-Chancellor Research at UNSW
Last year UNSW Science worked with over 170 partner organisations across sectors ranging from insurance to environmental management, finance to refugee mental health, aerospace to biotechnology.
We are flexible in the ways we can work together. Each relationship is unique and the goals achieved diverse:
- Multi-year collaborative research projects leveraging government support via the CRC and Linkage schemes
- On campus co-location of small and medium technology enterprises, such as , Drop Bio and
- One-off projects to solve industry challenges (Tech Vouchers, Innovation Connections, etc.)
- Student internships and Work Integrated Learning opportunities
鈥淲e felt that UNSW could offer us a solution to some of the problems we were facing. The relationship we developed with UNSW allowed us to dedicate a researcher to focus solely on the challenges we were facing. That proved incredibly valuable to us. The process was easy. Working with the academics, the University, was excellent. Seamless I would say. I'd definitely recommend it.鈥
