Research Support Strategy

Two programs have been initiated by the Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Research to enhance the research capacity and research productivity of ACU.

Research Support Teams

Groups of ACU researchers will form Research Support Teams to provide support to individual members to develop their research skills to enable them to increase presentations at ACU and external conferences; to publish journal articles, book chapters and books; to confidently seek collaborations; and to professionally write and submit applications for grants.  Applications are made through the Faculties.

Senior Proven Researcher Teams

The primary aim of this program is to provide funds to recruit excellent researchers.  Ideally, recruited researchers will form focused teams to rapidly increase research output.  This critical mass of research expertise, will increase collaboration and mentoring and provide enhanced research capacity in each faculty.  Applications are made through the Faculties.
