Responsibilities
The Faculty of Science and Engineering at Macquarie University is driven by the spirit of innovation. Here we nurture the next generation of science and technology innovators. The pairing of engineering and science in a single faculty means many of our research discoveries see direct technological applications. We are active within many industry partnerships, commercial collaborations and joint enterprise initiatives with government, industry and business partners.
AAO-Macquarie works in a matrix structure with close collaboration across its functional groups. There is a strong emphasis on communities of practice and a shared culture of learning and innovation.
Research translation and instrumentation engineering are key priorities of the University and faculty. Accordingly, significant investment is being made with the establishment of a new Engineering and AAO building within the Science and Engineering Precinct. The new building will enable co-location of research, engineering and commercial facilities. It will bring together the School of Engineering and Australian Astronomical Optics - Macquarie at Macquarie University’s Wallumattagal Campus. Currently in construction, we anticipate the new building to be active in 2025.
Our expertise includes: developing innovative technology for use in astronomical instruments, developing software and data systems for the processing, storage, and access of data, using these instruments and systems for scientific research.
