Our motivation is to tackle the big challenges

As academics we are naturally curious.

We seek to provide leadership that continually pushes the boundaries of knowledge.

We are driven by a ferocious passion to discover and innovate. We seek to widely collate and forensically examine complex datasets so we can provide the insight that can drive improved outcomes; be they for industry, government policy makers or community-based, not-for-profit groups.

But we know we can’t achieve our goals alone – we will need partners who bring complementary skills and capabilities to make lasting changes. We invite you to join us on this journey.

As academics we are naturally curious.

As Australia’s best University, Melbourne is strongly positioned to lead the pursuit, particularly when you acknowledge our research capabilities and realise that we:
