Business and Industry are the cornerstones of the economic life of our region. The University prides itself on its relationship with this sector and believes that strong, vibrant communities are created when a diverse variety of stakeholders engage together with integrity and intention.

By engaging with business and industry, the University is able to provide value-added solutions to their research and technology challenges by enabling access to the expertise and resources offered by our Faculties.

At the same time, building partnerships with business and industry is an essential pathway to meeting Faculty teaching and learning and research goals.

Strong business and industry partnerships also provide the means to ensuring our students are equipped with the knowledge and real-world skills which will make them sought-after and valued employees in tomorrow’s workforce.

There are many ways you can engage with your University. These include volunteering, community outreach programs, leadership programs, Work Integrated Learning (WIL) and engaged research.
