The school’s Industry Advisory Board is an integral part of its management structure and provides a link with a key stakeholder group. Its purpose is:
- to contribute to the strategic direction for teaching and research by reviewing and providing industry input to undergraduate course content, research directions, recruitment and staffing, and to provide support for student recruitment and scholarships
- to provide an external stakeholder voice with Government to influence investment and priorities with regard to facilities and equipment and research grant programs
- to act as an industry network that the school can use to test ideas and seek advice.
