RMIT opens research centre
In the International Year of Chemistry, RMIT University will open a joint research centre with the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology in Hyderabad, India.
Professor Margaret Gardner AO, Vice-Chancellor and President, RMIT University, said the joint IICT-RMIT Research Centre was a good example of international cooperation and collaboration in chemical research between India and Australia.
“Chemistry is a creative science essential for the sustainability and improvements to our way of life, and chemical research is critical for solving our most vexing global problems including food, water, health and energy,” Professor Gardner said.
The centre will focus on environmental and industrial research and is RMIT’s first collaborative research footprint in India. RMIT is committed to contribute more than AU$400,000 for the joint centre and has already contributed AU$150,000 towards the establishment of the facility and students’ scholarships.
