A collective commitment to making and measuring the impact of science.

Pact for Impact embodies UNSW Science’s spirit of collaboration, dedication to the pursuit of excellence, the advancement of scientific understanding and commitment to improve the world we live in through science.

Measuring the impact of science is complex. That’s why we have created a new series of Impact Indicators to measure the tangible impact of science on the world around us. More details coming soon!

Report: The Economic Contribution of Science at UNSW

The research conducted at UNSW Science is a major economic force, funnelling more than $350 million into the Australian economy and adding $2.2 billion to the global GDP every year.

Our researchers tackle some of the world’s toughest problems—from developing new vaccines and combating climate change to securing food supplies. By teaming up with businesses, governments, NGOs, and communities, we’re not just advancing science—we’re multiplying its impact on the economy and society.
