The International Space Centre (ISC) is an initiative by The University of Western Australia (UWA). Hosted at UWA, the ISC will seize new opportunities for knowledge transfer, technology development, impactful research and education in the space sector.
Exploring space has become an integral part of Australia’s economy and a symbol of human innovation. Through the ISC, UWA is harnessing our world-leading space research capability to build partnerships that will contribute to the ongoing growth of Australia’s space industry.
We have established the ISC as a new centre that unifies and focusses our expertise in engagement, education and research.
We would love to collaborate with you to achieve your needs, please get in touch.
