ARC Linkage Projects

The ARC (opens in a new window) scheme involves a collaborating organisation from outside the higher education sector who makes a significant contribution that is equal to, or greater than, the ARC funding, in cash and/or in kind, to the project. The scheme aims to:

  • encourage and develop long-term strategic research alliances between higher education institutions and industry in order to apply advanced knowledge to problems, or to provide opportunities to obtain national economic or social benefits;
  • support collaborative research on issues of benefit to regional and rural communities;
  • foster opportunities for postdoctoral researchers to pursue internationally competitive research in collaboration with industry;
  • provide industry-oriented research training to prepare high-calibre postgraduate research students; and
  • produce a national pool of worldclass researchers to meet the needs of Australian industry.

The Institute for Infrastructure Engineering has received funding for the following ARC (opens in a new window) Linkage project:
