CWR undertakes fundamental and applied research in stratified lakes, estuaries and coastal seas. We are a global research leader in developing water quality technologies. Our hardware and software is used in over 90 countries by scientists, utilities, regulatory agencies and environmental consultants.
By donating to our postgraduate program through a scholarship, you can help us offer further students the opportunity to make a major contribution to global water quality management. Throughout their Postgraduate study, students will be provided with:
- State of the art numerical models and instrumentation.
- Highly qualified and internationally recognised staff.
- A postgraduate student community composed of students from countries that in the past have included Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, USA, Italy, Germany, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan and Canada.
- An opportunity to interact with internationally recognised research leaders, government and industry partners that include the United States Geological Survey (US), the Public Utilities Board (Singapore), Sydney Catchment Authority (Australia), Melbourne Water (Australia) and the World Bank.
- Fieldwork in sites around the world that in the past have included Chile, Japan, Germany, Italy, Kenya, Italy, Greece, Israel and the US.

Simply put, the RMSO is a powerful freely available interactive website that engages, connects and encourages all Western Australians to participate in the care and protection of our river. It provides 'real time' easy to understand information on the impacts of development, climate change, effluent disposal, nutrient enrichment, and pathogen dispersal on our coastal ocean receiving waters. There is already a lot to be proud of. The RMSO global breakthrough has been wholly created and developed by the Centre for Water Research (CWR) at The University of Western Australia, and it is currently being used in Sydney, Melbourne and around the world. Government Departments, Councils, schools and industry have all seen the advantages of optimising our water management, and are getting involved with the RMSO.
As a donor/sponsor you or your company will be contributing to the management of our invaluable water resources through:
- Further installation of state-of-the-art monitoring equipment in the Swan-Canning River Basin.
- Extending the potency and application of the RMSO.
- Connecting with schools and developing a partnership with Millennium Kids (a state wide education network fostering a new generation of environmental leaders and scientists).
- Further developing this already accessible web resource to become even more responsive to community demands and questions.
