About
At CSIRO we shape the future. We do this by using science to solve real issues. Our research makes a difference to industry, people and the planet.
As Australia’s national science agency we’ve been pushing the edge of what’s possible for over 85 years. Today we have close to 6,500 talented people working out of 58 centres in Australia and internationally. Our people work closely with industry and communities to leave a lasting legacy.
We are one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world. Our interests span five broad areas: food, health and life science industries; energy; environment; information and communications; and manufacturing, materials and minerals. Within these areas we operate multiple national research flagships, facilities and collections.
Our ability to achieve results is shown by the quality of our research. We are in the top 1% of global research institutions in 14 of 22 research fields and in the top 0.1% in four research fields. Collectively, our innovation and excellence places us in the top ten applied research agencies in the world.
We ask, we seek, we solve. We are CSIRO.
