National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS)

Australia’s research excellence is underpinned by access to excellent national research infrastructure.

The National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) is a highly collaborative and distinctively Australian program which maximises Australia’s NRI investments by coordinating open access, targeted specialities, and co-funding across the country.

If you’d like to search NCRIS for the research infrastructure you need, head to riconnected.org.au.

If you’d like to find out more about the NCRIS program – and how the Australian government funds it – head to National Research Infrastructure.

For a list of current NCRIS projects, head to Funded research infrastructure projects.

Users relying on NCRIS range from early career researchers and small businesses who would otherwise struggle to access world-class NRI, to global research leaders tapping into the unique facilities that NCRIS provides.
