Research centre boost

An agreement signed in Launceston 24 October between AMC and Navantia Australia marks a significant step forward in the establishment of the Naval Research Centre, which will offer unique opportunities for students and researchers working at the cutting edge of innovation in ship building and design.

The partnership brings together AMC’s world-class research capabilities and Navantia Australia’s industry leadership in naval design capability. It will foster industry collaboration with AMC’s academics and students, contribute to creating and keeping high tech jobs in Australia and help to secure Australia’s sovereignty in the naval domain.

Areas of priority in ship building and design research include innovations to keep Australian vessels and sailors safe during naval operations and improvements to the efficiency and environmental footprint of vessels.
