Through our Education portfolio, DMTC is committed to boosting the pipeline of young, innovative Australians progressing from academic study to employment in defence industry and related fields – investing in the future workforce necessary to develop Australia’s defence industrial base. DMTC’s Industry Capability Development program proudly supports internship opportunities for undergraduate students across engineering, computer science and software development disciplines. These internships provide mutual benefits to both the student and to industry partners as they progress along their digital transformation journey. One of our interns, Thomas Hughes (an undergraduate student at Deakin University), kindly sat down with DMTC to talk about his internship experience and how DMTC’s support has shaped his future career path.
Through DMTC, Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG) is seeking innovative applied research proposals supporting development of high temperature structures and sub-assemblies. The aim is to complement parallel efforts in the field, and support the development of sovereign industrial capability with specific elements and sub-assembly knowledge that will be crucial in supporting the construction of full-scale hypersonic platforms.
Recently, DMTC Limited completed an innovative six-month pilot project supported by the NSW Government to improve business’ technology uptake and digital literacy for companies across the Illawarra and Shoalhaven regions.
The NSW Government provided financial sponsorship to support local companies to participate in the Smart Enough Factory pilot project delivered by DMTC Limited.
