Structure
- Core members
- The current core membership of TfC includes 20 researchers. The majority are mid-career researchers, with four (4) ECRs and two (2) Senior Researchers. Within the mid-career range, there is a very broad scope, from those who have just left ECR status to others who are quite senior and about to join the SR category.
- Associate and external members
- The associate and external membership consists of researchers from other institutions, researchers who are core members with other UTS research strenghts, artists, research project assistants and international associates.
- Postgraduate members
- HDR student members are associated with TfC automatically if they are supervised by a core member.
- Visiting scholars
- Visiting scholars - mostly from overseas institutions - contribute substantially to the research culture of TfC. The centre has a history of visitors (academics on study leave and HDR students) who stay from one week to six months. They customarily offer several papers or workshops in return for desk space, computing facilities, library access and networking.
