Mission statement
The CIP&MS aims to become an integrated interdisciplinary research centre that facilitates, coordinates and promotes innovative activities involving wide collaboration in the areas of infrastructure protection and mining safety. The CIP&MS will be a platform to which researchers from Civil and Mining disciplines of School of CMEA are able to collaborate in order to efficiently utilise the unique technical expertise and resources currently existing within the School of CMEA thus maximise our impact to industries. All activities and research-and-development conducted by the CIP&MS will have outcomes aimed at enhancing the image and standing of UOW as a leading research institution in line with the current UOW vision “to enrich people, communities and the environment by making original and creative connections across disciplinary, social and cultural boundaries”.
