Our research
Driving research excellence in Southeast Asia
Our strengths lie in our disciplinary breadth, multidisciplinary collaborations and comprehensive coverage of Southeast Asia.
Our researchers specialise in a broad range of disciplines including history, law, political science, agriculture, medicine, veterinary science and more.
A key pillar of the SSEAC Strategy 2024–2029 is research excellence. The SSEAC Grand Challenges Program will enable SSEAC researchers to focus on areas where the University is well positioned to make a substantial contribution to major challenges confronting the region and the world. This approach aligns closely with the University’s Sydney in 2032 Strategy, a key aspiration of which is research excellence that “tackles the greatest challenges and contributes to the common good”.
Our inaugural Grand Challenges themes build upon the multidisciplinary excellence of University of Sydney research teams that work in the region, tackling highly complex problems – from climate change and digital disruption to pandemic preparedness and chronic disease – where solutions require a wide range of disciplinary perspectives.
