Computation at Curtin

Computation now fundamentally underpins the majority of internationally competitive research across all fields and disciplines. As the demand for computational skills has grown, so too has the need for a dedicated institute that can support the research community.

The Curtin Institute for Computation (CIC) was established to meet this increasing demand for computational modelling, data analytics, and visualisation. The CIC initiates and fosters collaborative, interdisciplinary research and education programs with researchers.

Our computational specialists assist in applying computational methods across the sciences, engineering, social sciences, health science, business, and the humanities to provide innovative solutions to complex problems. Contact us to find out how the CIC can help you, or get in touch with one of the specialists in your faculty.

The CIC also runs regular events, from professional development to guest researcher seminars. Find out more on the Events page, or come and join us at 216.202 for our weekly drop-in sessions at 3pm on Tuesdays.
