The Faculty of Science at The University of Queensland is successful and research-intensive but seeks to identify opportunities for growth and impact, as well as to further diversify its research income. The Faculty would like to engage consultants with strong industry experience who can assist in developing a targeted research development plan based around identified research strengths as well as areas of future potential, where there is significant research funding and partnership opportunities.

target research partners from industries whose strategic opportunities and challenges intersect with the Faculty’s research strengths;
new and emerging areas of science suitable to either our research strengths or recommend areas of strategic opportunity to build research capability;
a research business development plan that articulates the Faculty’s value proposition and sets proactive engagement pathways.
