ARC Industrial Transformation Research Program

Round Status: Open

The Industrial Transformation Research Program (ITRP) scheme, first announced in 2012, supports research hubs and research training centres, and supports postgraduate research students and postdoctoral researchers in gaining real-world skills and experience through placement in industry. To achieve this, the Program funds Industrial Transformation research hubs (ITRH), and Industrial Transformation Training Centres (ITTC).

To achieve this, the Program will fund Industrial Transformation Research Hubs and Industrial Transformation Training Centres.

Round Priorities:

The ARC have advised that applications for ITTC funding commencing in 2014 will have a dual focus: food and manufacturing.

The Program will address research areas vital for, and assisting with, Australia’s future food storage, processing, manufacturing capabilities and product opportunities. Additionally, the Program will target product design and development, manufacturing techniques, defence manufacturing and firm organisation and management.
