Research Some of our recent projects are listed below. Commercialisation study for the humanities, arts and social sciences, DEST, 2004–05
Collaborating across the sectors - DEST, 2005–06 Working with the Council for Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, we studied how the humanities, arts and social sciences (HASS) sector collaborates with the science, technology, engineering and medicine (STEM) disciplines. As part of our research, we conducted an international literature review, interviews and focus groups, and a national survey for input to our analysis and recommendations. We also reviewed ten case studies in-depth. The outcome: A report to the Australian Government Department of Education, Science and Technology (DEST) describing best practices for collaborating across HASS-STEM disciplines, and recommendations for action for government, industry, education and institutions to encourage and support cross-sectoral collaboration.

Commercialisation study for the humanities, arts and social sciences - DEST, 2004–05 We investigated the commercial environment for the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS), the impact of HASS commercialisation on the sector, and the commercial arrangements operating in the HASS environment in Australia. We organised, facilitated and recorded focus groups, ran surveys, and reported the results of these activities. We wrote case studies illustrating the major activities, and made recommendations based on our findings. The outcome: A report to Department of Education Science and Technology describing Australia’s commercial environment relating to HASS research and practice, and recommendations for government action to encourage and support these endeavours.
