As one of Australia’s largest universities, QUT is a leader in international
research initiatives and projects, and constantly seeks to develop international
research links. QUT’s research goal is to advance and apply knowledge that
is relevant to the professions and communities with which QUT interacts, and
knowledge that is also relevant to the economic, cultural and social enhancement
of society.
To achieve this research goal, QUT is developing a culture of research excellence
with a strong commitment to national and international collaboration. As evidence
of this, the University has consistently been ranked in the top 10 Australian
universities for successful grants under the Australian Research Council’s
collaborative research schemes linking university-based researchers with external
industry partners.
QUT’s commitment to innovative, collaborative research is further demonstrated
through our involvement as lead-site for the Co-operative Research Centre in
Construction Innovation and the Co-operative Research Centre in Diagnostic Technology.
Both Centres receive substantial support from the Commonwealth Government and
core industry participants to undertake world-class research and research training.
QUT has the capability to turn research outcomes into commercial reality and
has vast experience in the management of both small and large-scale research
projects. qutbluebox, the technology transfer and commercialisation company for QUT, provides expert advice and support for commercialisation through project management, legal advice, intellectual property management and protection.
The University continues to perform well across key performance indicators,
realising increased external income for research, as well as extensive output
of publications in the form of books, book chapters, refereed journal articles
and publications in professional journals.
