Description

The Faculty of Business, Justice, and Behavioural Sciences constitutes 110 academic researchers and 159 Higher Degree Research (HDR) students. Our range of research is wide and brings benefit to the communities in our regions, as well as the communities that we serve nationally and internationally. The annual HDR Conference is one of the Faculty’s initiatives that demonstrate an ongoing commitment to the support of HDR students in their areas of research.

The Faculty focuses its research in four main areas:

1. Data Science, which includes machine vision and digital health, image and sensing for agriculture
and environment, data mining, and cybersecurity;

2. Business and Regional Economic Development, which includes workforce wellness, agricultural
and social marketing, business and entrepreneurship, and environmental economics and finance;

3. Health and Wellbeing, which includes research in mental health and community wellbeing, health
services research, and ageing;

4. Justice and Security, which includes home affairs, policing and security science, and law, justice
and resilience research groups.

Researchers are also working in emerging areas of waste, energy, pollution remediation, and STEM
education. Faculty researchers are currently participating extensively in the Cybersecurity, Soils, and
Food Agility CRCs and many researchers in our Faculty participate in CSU research centres including
the Graham Centre for Agricultural Innovation, National Wine and Grape Industry Centre (NWGIC),
and the Institute for Land, Water and Society (ILWS).

With continued success and growth of research in the Faculty, senior researchers and supervisors
actively support and engage with their HDR students. This support and engagement have significantly
contributed to the large number of students who have experienced successful and timely completion of
their doctorates.
