The Australian Council of Deans of Science (ACDS) is the national peak body for university science in Australia. We bring together Deans and other senior science leaders from across most Australian universities, representing the breadth of the science disciplines and diversity of the university sector.
ACDS exists to ensure that university science is visible, valued and influential. We provide a trusted national forum through which science leaders can collaborate, share insight, shape collective responses to emerging challenges, and advocate for the contribution of university science to Australia’s future.
