| The National Centre for
Information Systems Research
(NCISR) Group at the Australian National University in Canberra has, as a
primary aim, the conduct of research relevant to industry and business
in information systems and electronic commerce. The group achieves this aim
through close links with business organizations, industry associations,
government bodies, and consulting groups. Applied research projects and
consultancies are undertaken.
Canberra is Australia’s capital and the centre of
government. Thus, the group can work closely with government
organizations with an interest in information systems and e-commerce. The group can draw on
staff with expertise in all areas of business from its base in the
College of Business and Economics. Staff are active in research
collaboration with other academic institutions, industry and government.
In particular, the College has strong associations with government
agencies such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Department of
Finance & Administration, Treasury and Department of Defence. The
College is recognized as a
leader in the areas of economic policy analysis, accounting and finance,
applied statistics and econometric modelling. |
