Our mission within the Centre for Defence Engineering Research and Training (CDERT) is to bring our research strengths to bear, to develop world-leading academic knowledge and capability in key disciplines that make up defence engineering and technology.
Working together with our partners in the defence industry, both in Australia and in allied nations, CDERT is focused on the provision of research, training and consultancy excellence. Our research objective is to work with our partners to find innovative practical solutions to real-world defence problems. Our training programs are designed to meet the rapidly growing demand from our partners, to build a highly-skilled workforce supporting the uptake of advanced technologies driving industrial transformation.
Our strong collaboration with the defence industry, coupled with our research strengths in key disciplines and our unique research facilities, support our capability in conducting world-class research and in achieving impact.
