Research
‘The role of research is for the benefit of humanity and society.’ Hector M. Malano
In the Department of Infrastructure at Melbourne University we focus on solving society’s big infrastructure problems.
By collaborating between the disciplines of Geomatics, Civil and Environmental Engineering, our approach to research is unique. Rather than work in silos, we leverage the strength of our disciplines and create synergies across projects.
With this integrated focus, our aim is to be the leading Infrastructure Engineering department in the world.
Essential research for industry and society
Our research programs are dedicated to solving the major challenges facing societies around the world in the environment, physical infrastructure and spatial information.
Over the years, we have established excellent links with industry and government. Our research projects focus on significant and topical subject matter, and regularly involve input from other disciplines.
