The CRC Program


Established in 1990, the Cooperative Research Centres (CRC) Program is an Australian Government initiative that funds industry-led collaborations to help drive innovation.

The CRC Program links researchers with industry and government, with a focus on applied research.

It offers support through two elements:


  1. Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) grants: supporting medium to long-term industry-led collaborations, up to 10 years.
  2. Cooperative Research Centres Project (CRC-P) grants: supporting short-term, industry-led collaborative research, up to 3 years.

A CRC Advisory Committee (CRCAC) was established under the Industry Innovation and Science Australia Board to provide advice and recommendations for funding under the CRC and CRC-P programs, the ongoing progress and performance of individual CRCs, and the operations of the CRC and CRC-P programs.


The CRCAC may consist of up to seven members and are appointed by the Minister of Industry and Science.

 

ACM CRC was awarded a grant to run a 10-year program.
