Research Grants & Contracts (RGC)

Research Grants & Contracts provides the University's researchers with support in pursuing and administering research funding. RGC facilitates the research efforts of UNSW staff by assisting with applications for grants and fellowships, the negotiation of research contracts and the administration of externally funded funds.

Mark Wainwright Analytical Centre (MWAC)

The Mark Wainwright Analytical Centre houses major instrumentation used by researchers in the Faculties of Science, Medicine and Engineering for the study of the structure and composition of biological, chemical and physical materials. The Centre also does specialist consulting work for external clients. In addition, it provides the technical/professional support for the instruments.

Research Ethics & Compliance Support

The Research Ethics & Compliance Support (RECS) team coordinates committees and processes for research involving humans, animals, gene technology and radiation safety and provides advice on legislative and other requirements in these areas.

Research Strategy Office

The Research Strategy Office (RSO) aims to enhance UNSW’s research performance and profile by identifying opportunities for research funding (including awards and fellowships) and maximising the opportunity for success by advising and directly assisting researchers with the development of high quality applications. The RSO also provides strategic leadership in the identification, establishment and effective management of local and international research partnerships.

Research Training

The Research Training team provides and coordinates training programs for UNSW researchers, including HDR candidates, supervisors and research training leaders. The team works collaboratively within the Division of Research and Enterprise and with stakeholders across the University to facilitate training resources, modules, and activities. 

Knowledge Exchange 

Knowledge Exchange helps researchers and staff transform research discoveries into successful innovations to benefit our communities and society. Knowledge Exchange can help researchers: identify and connect to partners to fund research; negotiate contracts to fund research activities; protect ideas and innovations; prepare confidentiality agreements; draft patents, copyright and trademark applications; and connect researchers to the right people in business, industry and government.

Entrepreneurship

The Founders Program is UNSW's platform to embed entrepreneurship at campus and online. The Founders Program supports all UNSW students, staff and alumni to build entrepreneurship skills and translate their ideas and research into growing startup companies.
