The School actively seeks collaboration with external partners to advance engineering teaching and research.
Strong links with industry have brought about establishment of a number of major strategic partnerships. These partnerships provide valuable funding to:
- progress research priorities
- provide equipment for teaching and research
- supply scholarships for students
- develop programs to address demand for expertise in specific areas, and
- ensure that coursework programs continually evolve to provide students with skills to meet industry needs.
Collaboration with our industry partners is vital to producing high-quality graduates and research, which in turn support the unprecedented level of development at the local, national and international scales.
