Modern research is often a team process which is facilitated by the complementary activities of a coordinated group. Such groups are composed of several researchers who bring unique approaches to their common problems, numerous interacting graduate students and post-doctoral researchers, as well as professional and technical support teams for the research. These elements combine to form a research centre/unit which offers an environment richer than the simple sum of its parts.
The University and Faculty research centres consist of groups of nationally and internationally recognized research faculty who have an established record of performance. They are organized around major themes of interest to their disciplines and provide an important service to the community. Often, the centres offer an academically rich environment for graduate students.
