Research Projects

Research will be conducted in a team-based approach. Research in The Academy will be truly multi-disciplinary which will allow discoveries to be made at the interface of disciplines.

The Academy’s intention is to organise research into classes of problems that seeks to address a key research-theme or sector-goal.

Eight key research themes have been identified:

• Advanced Computational Engineering, Simulation and Manufacture
• Infrastructure Engineering
• Clean Energy
• Water
• Nanotechnology
• Biotechnology and Stem Cell Research
• Humanities and Social Sciences
