The Centre works at the interface of health, education and welfare.
It has strong
and well established working links with many other research organisations
and academics
from across the University as well as from other tertiary institutions.
The multi-disciplinary
nature of the Centre means we have the ability to draw on a wide range of experience
and expertise to provide for all aspects of a project.
