Centre Structure

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Exciton Science focuses on three core activities.

Research: deliver high quality research outcomes.
Translations: make an impact on industry and inspire the next generation of researchers.
Administration: use public resources effectively to achieve the mission of the Centre.

The Director is Professor Paul Mulvaney. He is supported by an Executive Committee representing the core activities.

An Advisory Board, with experts in each of the core activities, provides oversight to ensure that the Centre is meeting its goals. The Advisory Board is chaired by Professor Mark Considine Provost of the University of Melbourne.

Executive Committee

The Executive Committee is responsible for reviewing the strategic direction of the Centre, assessing progress against projected milestones and implementing strategic changes to the Centre’s research directions or operation.

Research Theme Leaders

Each of the three Research Themes is led by a Theme Leader and a Deputy. Theme Leaders are members of the Executive Committee. In this capacity they continually assess the progress and value of each research platform, identify platforms which should be proposed for removal, and propose new platforms to the Executive Committee as opportunity arises.
