Under the ARC's Industrial Transformation Research Program (ITRP), these Training Centres and Research Hubs support university-based researchers and industry to work together to address significant industry-identified priorities, from renewable and low emissions technologies to value-adding in the agricultural sector.
ARC Chief Executive Officer, Professor Ute Roessner, said the new Training Centres and Research Hubs will drive innovative research to advance Australian industry and research capability.
'Bringing together leading Australian researchers and key industry partners, the newly funded Training Centres and Hubs will cultivate the next generation of industry-focused researchers to address current and emerging challenges,' Professor Roessner said.
'Their work will support innovation, strengthen Australia's research capability and boost productivity across key sectors.'
Successful projects will deliver a wide range of practical outcomes, from developing reliable sensors and smart algorithms that can monitor Australians' health while safeguarding their data, to transforming how soil and crops are managed in Australian agriculture.
