*Institute for Culture and Society*

The Institute for Culture and Society (ICS) within the University of
Western Sydney (UWS) was launched in 2012. ICS is a major national and
international Institute for the pursuit of engaged interdisciplinary
cultural and social research. Rated 5 (“well above world standard”) for
Cultural Studies in the 2010 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA)
rankings, the Institute coordinates interdisciplinary cultural research
across the humanities and social sciences and connects Australian
cultural and social research to relevant research overseas, particularly
in Asia.

With the continuation of the Australian Research Council’s Discovery
Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA) scheme in 2017 (see the website:
http://www.arc.gov.au/ncgp/decra.htm), ICS is investing in leading
cultural and social researchers from Australia and overseas by
supporting innovative and outstanding DECRA proposals from applicants up
to 5 years *post-PhD*.

*ICS Research Program*

ICS’s research program is currently organised into the following areas:

·Cities and Economies

·Diversity and Globalization

·Digital life

·Heritage and Environment

*ICS Research and Researchers*

ICS researchers approach culture as a vital dimension of social,
political, and economic life. Their practice-oriented, interdisciplinary
research produces cutting-edge work in and across the fields of cultural
studies, media studies, sociology, cultural and human geography,
cultural economy, Asian studies, education studies, digital humanities,
environmental humanities, and museum and heritage studies. The Institute
hosts UWS’s role in the Young and Well Cooperative Research Centre.
