Research Laboratories – Overview

Research is organized into eleven (11) Research Laboratories that have been formally instituted within the Department and whose infrastructure and equipment supports all related activities. Fund securing and fund raising for the update and upgrade of the Laboratories equipment is an expressed policy and priority of the Department. All research and research-related activities are supported by UniWA through the institutional Special Account for Research Funds.

Research in these Laboratories is supported by academic and other staff, by undergraduate and postgraduate students and PhD candidates and by an extended network of national and international research collaborations and exchanges that is being built based on personnel initiatives. Undergraduate and postgraduate students are strongly encouraged to participate in research activities through a close interaction with the departmental MSc and PhD programs.
