Fire Safety Research
Our world-class facilities and international staff allow us to work on some of the most pressing fire safety challenges faced by the global community. Our research aims at improving building codes and driving safer practices by working collaboratively with industry and community organisations such as the Queensland Fire Service or the Queensland Government.
Past projects
Over the course of the year, UQ Fire runs a variety of student research projects.
These frequently contribute to our wider research activities, but can also be self-contained, or be directed by the motivations of our industrial partners.
Research projects have included research on vehicle fires, testing for fire-fighter visibility, micro-gravity fire behaviour.
