Recent industry collaborations include:
- Australia’s first professorship in electricity power economics is a result of a UNSW–Energy Australia partnership. The EnergyAustralia Chair in Electrical Power Economics, based in the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications, will focus on developing an understanding of future trading emissions schemes. The Chair will investigate innovative and sustainable infrastructure provision and regulation, taking into account the technical, economic, public policy and governance aspects.
最近与行业合作成果包括:
在全澳大利亚首次开设电力经济学教学就是新南威尔士大学与澳大利亚能源公司(Energy Australia)合作的成果。办公室设在大学电气工程和电讯学院的澳大利亚电力公司电力经济学主席将把重点放在开发未来的贸易发布计划合约上。考虑到技术,经济,公共政策和治理方面的问题,主席将探索可创新和可持续发展的基础设施和条例。
- The Evans and Peck Chair for Integrated Transport Innovation will lead the new Research Centre for Integrated Transport Innovation (RCITI) in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering. The Centre will investigate sustainable approaches to transport infrastructure and operations, with extensive liaison with industry and the government.
负责综合交通创新工作的伊文思(Evans)和派克(Peck)主席将引领土木工程和环境学院的新的综合交通创新研究中心。该中心将通过广泛的与业界和政府部门联系,探索对于交通的基础设施和操作的可持续发展的方法。
- The Mitsubishi Chair in Sustainable Mining Practices, held by Associate Professor David Laurence, will lead the new Australian Centre for Sustainable Mining Practices based in the School of Mining Engineering. The Centre will be an international centre of excellence in sustainable mining research and education, with a particular focus on the Asia-Pacific region. It will provide education for local and international students at undergraduate and postgraduate level and for mining industry professionals.
就职于大卫.劳伦斯(David Laurence)副教授主持的可持续开采研究与实践部的三菱公司的主席将率领采矿工程学院的新的澳大利亚可持续开采研究与实践研究中心.。该研究中心在可持续开采研究和教育方面,特别是重点关注亚太地区的可持续采矿研究和教育方面将是一个卓越的国际研究中心。该中心将为当地学生,国际留学生和采矿业界的专业人士提供学士学位,硕士学位的课程教育。
- A Solar Industrial Research Facility (SIRF) is under construction in the upper UNSW campus. The facility features a state-of-the-art silicon solar cell production line with commercial capability built in partnership with Germany’s Roth & Rau, and a Research and Development laboratory aimed at developing and transferring advanced solar cell technologies from the UNSW ARC Photovoltaic Centre of Excellence into commercial production.
太阳能工业研究中心(SIRF)正在建设中,位于UNSW的主校区内。该中心具有与德国罗斯和劳(Roth—Rau)公司共同合作的先进的硅太阳能电池产品,该产品是符合商业性能的,该中心还包括了一个研究开发实验室,目的是开发和传播卓越的UNSW ARC光电中心的先进的太阳能电池技术,并将其转为商业的生产力。
The 2010 Australian Government’s ‘Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA)’ initiative found that UNSW reached the threshold on more areas of Information Technology (08) than any other Australian university.
”2010年澳大利亚政府的“澳大利亚卓越研究期刊”委员会的报告指出UNSW 在信息技术“InformationTechnology(08)” 领域诸多方面获得优秀排名的数量比任何其他澳大利亚大学都多。
An overall score of 4 ranked UNSW’s research above the global average, however, the most telling part of the report is in the number of subcategories where UNSW is on par or above the global average - five for UNSW whereas the next highest university made par in only two. UNSW ranked in Computer Software, Distributed Computing and Library and Information studies, Artificial Intelligence and Image Processing, and Information Systems. UNSW was the only Australian University to make the rankings for Computer Software and Distributed Computing!
UNSW研究总体评分为4,高于全球平均水平,然而,该报告最能说明问题的部分是在子类别数量上,UNSW为5,高于全球平均水平,而排在UNSW 后面的最高只不过是2。UNSW获优秀排名的分别是计算机软件,离散式计算与图书馆和信息研究,人工智能和图像处理,信息系统。UNSW 是唯一的一个澳大利亚大学在计算机软件和离散式计算方面获得优秀排名的大学。
Funding Success
Ten Faculty of Engineering projects were successful in the latest round of Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage grants, which support collaborative research and development projects on industry-relevant problems. The research is varied and includes monitoring organic matter in drinking water systems using fluorescence spectroscopy, a multipoint voltage sensor for high-power distribution lines, and the economic value of smart integration of electric vehicles into the Australian electricity industry. Overall, the Faculty of Engineering grants totalled A$2.62 million.
筹资方面的成功
该系的10个工程项目在最新一轮的澳大利亚研究理事会(ARC)研究拨款(Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage grants)中获胜,该研究款项是用来支持相关工业界问题的合作研究和开发。研究范围是多样化的,其中包括用萤光光谱检测饮水系统的有机物质,高配电线路的多点电压探测器和澳大利亚电力工业的电动车的智能集成的经济价值等。总之,工程系获得了澳币2,620,000.00的基金。
UNSW has also been very successful in gaining funding from the Federal Government’s Australian Solar Institute competitive funding pool, with an initial Foundation partner A$5 million grant (with ANU and CSIRO), followed by an associated A$4 million Applied Research Grant for work within the SIRF facility, and a further A$5 million Applied Grant for work with industry partners in Australia and China.
UNSW一直以来都非常成功地获得了联邦政府的澳大利亚太阳能研究院竞争性资金库的基金,其中包括最初和合作伙伴一起获得了澳币5,000,000.00的基金(和ANU以及CSIRO一起), 然后接着又获得了连带的应用研究基金澳币4,000,000.00用于太阳能工业研究中心(SIRF), 而后又获得澳币5,000,000.00的应用基金用于支持澳大利亚国的工业合作伙伴的研发工作。
