Organisational structure

CCI has a lean, fl at structure. The Directorate and largest research node are located at Queensland University of Technology. The second largest research node is at Swinburne University of Technology. Small research nodes are located at our research partner locations.

Chief, Partner and Associate Investigators and staff interface with the Centre principally through involvement in one or more projects within the six major Programs, as detailed elsewhere in this report. Each project and program has a designated leader. In addition to these programs, Distinguished Professor John Hartley runs a complementary research
program through his Federation Fellowship. The CCI website is regularly updated with news and reports of Centre activities and had a major refresh in early 2008. We typically hold two plenary centre symposia annually, bringing all researchers together to review progress to date, highlight challenges, and develop new research opportunities through interaction with cognate researchers and industry representatives.

Five biannual symposia have been held to date. In 2007 the symposia were held in March (State Library of Queensland, Brisbane), in conjunction with the Centre’s official launch by Professor Peter Hoj (Chief Executive Officer, Australia Research Council) and October (Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne).
