The Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture is a joint venture between the University of Tasmania and the Tasmanian Government. This partnership has brought together the human and physical resources of the Tasmanian Government with the scientific research and teaching capacity of the University of Tasmania (UTAS) to create a centre of excellence in agricultural research, development, extension, education and training. TIA has a dynamic team of scientists and technical experts many of whom are internationally renowned, with access to world-class facilities and equipment. TIA has strong links to other research, development and extension institutions in Australia and around the world. As an organisation on the boundary between science and society, TIA is positioned to create a constructive science–community dialogue which is increasingly sought in the current environment. TIA’s role is to provide a solution-oriented approach to research, development, extension and education. | Website | Contact |
