**About the Research Portfolio**

QUT has experienced the strongest, sustained research growth of any university in the sector over the last ten years.

The Graduate Research Education and Development (GRE+D), in Research Strategy and Policy, supports learning and skills development for all research students and their supervisors, thereby preparing industry and work ready research graduates.
Research Infrastructure (RI) delivers coordinated University-wide research infrastructure capabilities through distinct research facilities. In collaboration with internal and external partners, the unit acquires, facilitates access to, develops, and manages world-class research infrastructure capabilities.
Sustainability Strategy advises the University on sustainability strategy, planning, policy, and partnerships and supports the Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Research) in pursuing major research initiatives in the sustainability space. The Pro Vice-Chancellor’s Office also champions and coordinates education for sustainability at QUT in collaboration with the Education Portfolio and supports sustainability programs linked to QUT’s operations.

Office of Research Ethics and Integrity (OREI) supports researchers by providing education, guidance, process and advice for research ethics, biosafety and responsible research practices to embed a high quality research culture at the University.
