What is the Centre for Bulk Solids and Particulate Technologies
Australia's Centre for Bulk
Solids and Particulate Technologies (CBSPT) is a world leader
in applied and fundamental bulk solids handling research. In
1995, it was established and supported by the Australian Research
Council (ARC) as one of a prestigious handful of national Key
Centres of Teaching and Research.
The Centre is a collaborative
initiative between the University of Wollongong and the University
of Newcastle, unifying two strong streams of expertise in bulk
solids handling and particulate mechanics and materials research,
developed over more than 30 years.
The mission of the Centre
is to persue excellence in teaching, research and industrial
development in bulk solids handling and particulate technologies.
It offers the following:
specialised strands
in bulk solids and particulate technologies in Bachelor
of Engineering undergraduate degrees at the Universities
of Wollongong and Newcastle; |
a postgraduate
degree in Master of Engineering Practice (Bulk
Solids Handling); |
supervision
for candidates enrolled in research higher degrees such
as Master of Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy; |
short
intensive professional development programs across
a gamut of bulk solids handling and particulate technology
disciplines; and |
| because
the Centre operates at the cutting edge of knowledge through
a world-recognised applied research and development program,
it is uniquely equipped to assist processors and manufacturers
with industrial troubleshooting and technical
assistance. |
