Collaboration

Projects that demonstrate genuine collaboration between two or more eligible institutions are preferred. Projects must relate to high-quality research activity and must be broadly in line with the research directions of the institution(s) involved.

Collaboration will typically involve the shared use of facilities on different projects and/or collaborative projects. Where the equipment required will be located in more than one institution, the application must demonstrate clearly that:

• the facility is genuinely integrated and collaborative;
• the items of equipment are complementary in nature; and
• overall research outcomes will be enhanced.
