The University of Western Australia (UWA), a global top 100 University with a rich tradition of academic excellence and innovation, stands as a key partner in advancing Australia’s defence and security agenda and capability needs.

Central to UWA's efforts in this critical area is the Defence and Security Institute (UWA DSI).

This premier institution consolidates and channels UWA’s expertise in defence and security research, engagement, and education.

UWA's five core focus areas:

  • Sensing, Quantum and AI
  • Coastal and Maritime Defence
  • Human Decision Science
  • Law and Policy
  • Health and Biosecurity

These have been strategically crafted to engage with and support key national priorities.

Recognising the pivotal nature of initiatives like the Australian Strategic Capability Accelerator (ASCA), AUKUS, and DSTG’s STaR Shots, our approach seeks to seamlessly integrate academic and research excellence with the nation's defence and security blueprint.

In doing so, UWA endeavours to bolster Australia's defence posture, ensuring our contributions are both relevant and impactful in the broader national and regional context.
