But what also characterises geographers at UOW is their collegiality, generosity and care towards other scholars, both academics and students—and this ethos definitely has big ripple effects across the rest of the discipline in Australia and beyond 4/5.

In terms of funded research success alone, geographers at UOW are one of the top performing programs in Australia—they currently hold 1 Laureate, 1 Future Fellowship, 2 DECRAs, 4 Discoveries, 2 Linkages, in addition to an enviable record of industry funding. 3/5.
