ACU Supporting Research Community
The Supporting Research Community is for all staff at ACU member universities who are involved in supporting the research process, including research management and administration, library services and researchers. The community creates a space for colleagues from across the Commonwealth to share knowledge, experience and good practice, keep up-to-date with the latest trends and opportunities, discuss issues and solutions, showcase the work of their team and university, and discover potential avenues for collaboration. The community also has a grant scheme. Find out more and join the community.
