The Division of Information, Technology, Engineering and the Environment (ITEE) is both a traditional university division and a genuine hub for theoretical and applied disciplinary and cross-disciplinary research. The Division has a diverse and multi-cultural environment with over 300 academic researchers and more than 320 PhD students, located at our Mawson Lakes and City East Campuses.
Our academic schools, flagship research institutes and related research concentrations are at the cutting edge of teaching, research and knowledge transfer in areas that are among the most significant to modern society.
From a disciplinary perspective our research is based, technically and socio-technically, in
- Electrical and Electronic, Mechanical, Civil and Transport Engineering
- Mathematics and Statistics, Computer Science, Library Science, IS and IT
- Physical and Chemical Science
- Urban and Regional Planning and Construction Management and Economics
- Project Management and Logistics and Supply Chain Management
- Environmental Science, Materials Science and Bio- and Nano- Technology
However we apply ourselves to the major issues of our time through our Research Institutes and School-based groups including:
- Climate Change
- Sustainability
- Energy and Resources
- Water
- Waste and Contamination
- Productivity and Manufacturing
- Defence and Security
- Economic Growth
- ICT Connectivity
