They do not have a separate legal status from UNSW, they can only contract as UNSW. They remain under the control of UNSW, even if they have relationships with external entities. They are governed by and accountable to parties or areas within UNSW. </h3> <h3><strong>External Centres & Institutes</strong> typically involve a number of organisations that, together with UNSW, have agreed to form a collaborative endeavour to pursue a joint mission. They are established on the basis of external funding, e.g., ARC Centres of Excellence, and have external establishment requirements, including governance, reporting and reviewing requirements, pertaining to bodies that are external to UNSW.</h3> </div> </div> <div class="field-section-intro"><h2 class="text-align-center"><a href="https://research.unsw.edu.au/unsw-centres-and-institutes-procedure-and-forms"><strong>Click here for the UNSW Centres and Institutes Procedure and all related forms. </strong></a></h2> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </div> <div id="section4"> <div class="field-parallax-textarea-paragrap"><section class="parallax-textarea"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> <div class="field-section-body"><h2> </h2> <h2><strong>Search for a UNSW Centre or Institute by name:</strong></h2> <div id="search-all-unsw"> <script> (function() { var cx = '014275177034478852081:nmfrbbbiokm'; var gcse = document.createElement('script'); gcse.type = 'text/javascript'; gcse.async = true; gcse.src = 'https://cse.google.com/cse.js?cx=' + cx; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(gcse, s); })(); </script><p><gcse:search enableorderby="false" queryparametername="kw">Loading...</gcse:search></div> <link href="https://www.google.com/cse/style/look/default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </div> <div id="section5"> <div class="field-parallax-image-grid-paragr"><section class="parallax-image-grid"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-4 intro"> <div> <div class="field-title">Find a UNSW Centre or Institute</div> <div class="field-content">UNSW Centres gather a critical mass of UNSW academics to work primarily on a focused area while providing high external visibility for their activities.
