UNSW Faculty of Science

The Faculty of Science is a constituent body of the University of New South Wales, Australia.

The Faculty consists of:
* [http://www.aviation.unsw.edu.au/ Department of Aviation]
* [http://www.bees.unsw.edu.au/ School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences]
* [http://www.babs.unsw.edu.au/ School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences]
* [http://www.chem.unsw.edu.au/ School of Chemistry]
* [http://www.materials.unsw.edu.au/ School of Materials Science and Engineering]
* [http://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/ School of Mathematics and Statistics]
* [http://www.optom.unsw.edu.au/ School of Optometry and Vision Science]
* [http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/ School of Physics]

Within the School of Physics, the [http://www.qcaustralia.org/experimental_unsw.php/ Centre for Quantum Computer Technology] has three major research laboratories at the University of New South Wales: the Atomic Fabrication Facility (AFF), the National Magnet Laboratory (NML) and the Semiconductor Nanofabrication Facility (SNF). These all allow for nanoscale device fabrication and measurement.

Analytical Centre

Adjacent to the Chemical Sciences building, (Applied Science), is the new UNSW Analytical Centre Building, the goal of which is to co-locate major research instrumentation in a single, purpose built, high-grade facility for the University.

The Analytical Centre houses the most important major instruments used in the Faculties of Science, Medicine and Engineering for the study of the structure and composition of biological, chemical and physical materials and also includes preparation laboratories, smaller instruments and computing facilities. In addition, it provides the technical/professional support for the instruments. The building also houses new teaching and research laboratories for the School of Chemistry.

The UNSW Analytical Centre consolidates the management of resources to minimise unnecessary duplication, as well as providing the appropriate infrastructure to support the instruments and a world-class research environment within which the instrumentation can operate to specification.

Additionally, the new UNSW Analytical Centre has recently received a $500,000 grant from the Magnowski Institute of Applied Science to use in further advances in the studies of applied science.
