The center also aligns with the University's goal of becoming a world top 200 research institute by the time the university is 50 years old in 2014 (MQ@50). With the aim of bringing our research activities to the public arena, tightening the bonds of our existing partnerships and creating new ones we will hold a workshop each year targeted to an area of research of significance to the centre.
