Welcome to the Division of Research and Commercialisation |
||||||||||||||||||||
|
The Division of Research and Commercialisation works with the University's Faculties and Research Institutes to identify initiatives at the local, state, national and international levels. These contribute to the domain expertise that underpins the knowledge economy and also provide a sustainable research income base across a variety of external sources. Global research problems are increasingly complex, requiring innovative solutions provided by interdisciplinary teams. QUT is meeting this challenge by developing critical mass in areas where it has comparative advantage or unique domain knowledge. This investment in selectivity and concentration is evident through the establishment of four flagship research institutes. The Division is comprised of four functional areas: Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Office of Research, Research Students Centre (including Dean, Graduate Studies Office), and the Office of Commercial Services. The quality of information and advice provided by Divisional staff is a key performance measure and is subject to two critical measures: Client Satisfaction levels and Quality Assurance. Client satisfaction feedback, sought by all of the divisional Offices, provides a basis for continual improvement. In terms of quality assurance, the Office of Commercial Services is third-party quality assured under the relevant ISO requirements for contract management. On behalf of the Division I would like to personally welcome you to our website and invite you to contact us to discuss how we can assist you to further your research and development goals.
