Strategic Research Priorities

Two major research initiatives – the Illawarra Health and Medical Research Institute (IHMRI) and the SMART Infrastructure Facility – have been identified by the University of Wollongong (UOW) as key strategic priorities.

Research at IHMRI


IHMRI, a joint initiative of UOW and the NSW state government, has been established to build health and medical research capability in the Illawarra region and promises to generate results that lead to significant health benefits for the local and wider community.

The SMART Infrastructure Facility, Australia’s first infrastructure research and training institute, will contribute to the planning of future infrastructure projects nationwide, providing comprehensive analytical and scientific research support and teaching.

 

Both these institutes stand to make a highly significant contribution on a local as well as a national level. UOW, together with the state and federal governments, has substantially invested in these organisations to support their development and help drive their future success.
