Â鶹ֱ²¥ and Hockey Australia have formed a two-year partnership which will see them collaborating on research, media and marketing activities.<\/p>\n

The alliance will embrace the university\u2019s research strengths, including a study into attracting and retaining talented players and the reach of hockey in international markets.<\/p>\n

Â鶹ֱ²¥ Vice-Chancellor, Professor Deborah Terry said Curtin was thrilled to be signing the agreement with one of Australia\u2019s elite sporting organisations.\"Vice<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe university\u2019s association with Hockey Australia goes back three decades when the national program moved to our Bentley campus,\u201d Professor Terry said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring that time both organisations have developed a reputation for excellence both here and internationally and it is this commitment to excellence that we hope will continue under this new agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Professor Terry said students would have the opportunity to work closely with elite players and coaches.<\/p>\n

“Our researchers will assist Hockey Australia to maintain its competitive edge with projects including one by the School of Physiotherapy and Exercise Science that will utilise Curtin\u2019s climate chamber to study the effect of climate changes on Hockey Australia players.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe School of Design and Art will undertake a Uniform Design Capability project looking at potential improvements to the playing kit of Hockey Australia such as adding smart devices into the design to assist with player management.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will also be placements for students from film and television, media and communications, event management, as well as physiotherapy and sports science.\u201d<\/p>\n

Professor Terry said film and TV students would be filming an online documentary called Road to Rio<\/em> about the journey of some of Hockey Australia\u2019s players to the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis collaboration closely aligns with Curtin\u2019s strategic plan to expand its outreach with relevant networks and partnerships in order to provide students with learning opportunities that equip them with skills for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
