IntroductionI am pleased to introduce this final report from UCL Australia, which celebrates UCL’s activities in Adelaide over the last seven years and is a testament to the sustained efforts of its staff and students.

UCL’s approach to global engagement focuses on working with partners to achieve fair solutions to global challenges, and the new partnership between UniSA and UCL Faculty of Engineering Sciences will provide a fantastic platform to build on the achievements of UCL Australia, developing tomorrow’s leaders in the energy and resources sectors.

It is important to acknowledge the very substantial financial and operational support that UCL Australia received from Santos, BHP and the South Australian Government to enable our activities in Adelaide over the last seven years. As can be seen in this report, UCL Australia also benefitted from a wide range of in-kind support from many others in industry across Australia. UCL appreciates greatly the contributions from all our industry and government partners. I would also like to thank those on the advisory and academic boards who gave regularly of their expertise and played an important governance role. Finally, I would like to thank the staff and students who have contributed to the academic endeavour in Adelaide. I hope that you take pride that through your participation you have joined the exclusive group that is UCL alumni.

While the stand-alone operations of UCL Australia cease at the end of 2017, January 2018 brings an exciting new phase of the partnership between UCL Faculty of Engineering Sciences and UniSA. UCL will have an ongoing presence in South Australia, including the placement of UCL Australia staff within UniSA Engineering and the Future Industries Institute at Mawson Lakes, joint UCL-UniSA fellowships for women in Engineering and cross-hemisphere teaching programmes run by the two institutions. Building on the achievements of UCL Australia, I am confident that this new partnership will lead to a long-term and sustained legacy of UCL activities in South Australia.

Professor Michael Arthur UCL President & Provost

Note from Acting Head of DepartmentAlthough UCL Australia has had a relatively short history, I believe we have made a difference here in Adelaide. This report documents what we’ve done since we established in Adelaide in 2009, enrolling our first cohort of students in 2010, through to our final cohort of students in Victoria Square who will graduate at the end of 2017. The report tries to summarise the things we’ve achieved here in Adelaide, in research, teaching and outreach via our public lecture series and to acknowledge the efforts of our management, academic and professional services staff, our students and the many other people involved in our enterprise. In particular, we greatly appreciate the significant support we received from many companies and individuals in the energy and resources sectors, who assisted us in many ways – from sponsoring research financially, to giving of their time and expertise in guest or public lectures, or hosting student research projects or field trips. My thanks also, to Brooke Williamson for helping produce this report. Finally, while this report summarises our efforts here over the last eight years in a quantitative way, it cannot adequately convey the often life-changing impacts that I think UCL Australia has had on many of our students and staff or, indeed, wider impacts we’ve had on the energy and resources sectors. I look forward with hope to these sorts of impacts continuing as we move on to our new operations within the partnership between UCL Engineering and UniSA.

A (Brief) History of UCL AustraliaThe School of Energy and Resources, Australia (later to be renamed UCL Australia) was established in Adelaide in 2009 as UCL’s first overseas campus. As the only UK university with a presence in Australia, UCL’s purpose was to bring a global and unique approach to postgraduate education in the energy and resources sectors. UCL had three original goals in establishing in Australia. Focusing on minerals, energy, natural resources management and space and climate physics, it sought to: provide an interdisciplinary model of research and teaching; increase its share of the best research students from Asia and the Pacific; and engage more directly with business and government to prove a new business model.

UCL Australia developed as part of former Premier Mike Rann’s vision of Adelaide as a University City, which saw policies to attract high quality international universities to Adelaide in support of key State Strategic priorities and to raise the profile of Adelaide as a destination for international students. UCL’s Vice-Provost International at the time, Professor Michael Worton, supported by the then Provost Sir Malcolm Grant, developed a relationship with the South Australian Government, brokered by the SA Agent General’s office in London. Mr David Knox, former Chief Executive of Santos was the other key person to support UCL establishing in Adelaide. A generous funding package was provided by Santos for MSc scholarships, Professorial Chair, professional development of academics and international research capacity. The SA Government committed a similar level of funding through redevelopment of space within the Torrens Building for the UCL Australia campus and initial establishment costs and campus rental for the initial lease period to 30 June 2017. Subsequently BHP Billiton also provided funding to fund a Professional Chair, PHD Scholarships and energy related research in Australia through the establishment of the International Energy Policy Institute.

In 2009, the first staff were appointed, including our first academic director Professor Tony Owen, academics Drs Mohan Kohle and Kim Talus and professional services staff Maria Stavrinakis and Lisa Brien, with Richard Martin seconded from UCL in London as Chief Operating Officer. The first cohort of MSc students started in February 2010, with our first graduation ceremony held at the Royal Institution Australia in December 2011. Subsequently, Mr David Travers was appointed as Chief Executive Officer in 2010, leading UCL Australia until 2015. After Richard Martin returned to London, Kym Teh was appointed Chief Operating Officer from July 2010 until May 2011. Mr Bronte Treloar was appointed Chief Financial Officer from July 2011 until May 2015 and then Deputy Head of Department from June 2015 to December 2017. Professor Tony Owen retired from the position as academic director, to be replaced for a year by Professor Eric Fraga, on secondment from Chemical Engineering.

In 2012 Dr Ady James came from the Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL) at UCL to set up an outpost hosted within UCL Australia. For over 40 years the MSSL has been delivering a broad, cutting-edge space science programme in the UK, with involvement in over 50 space science missions internationally. In addition to conducting research and collaborating with the space community within the region, the goal for MSSL (Australia) was to be involved in research and continuous professional development programmes in the areas of technical project management, systems engineering and systems thinking. About the same time, the International Energy Policy Institute was established, with Professor Stefaan Simons from UCL Chemical Engineering appointed to the BHP Billiton Chair to lead research into energy policy and also act as Director of Research.

In 2013 Ady James was appointed Academic Director when Eric Fraga returned to London. In February 2015, UCL launched its new Global Engagement Strategy, which focuses on partnerships of equivalence rather than having a “bricks and mortar” presence overseas. Following consultation, it was agreed that the campus would close as a stand-alone activity at the end of 2017. Stefaan Simons briefly took on the interim role of Head of Department until starting as Dean of Engineering at Brunel University, with Maria Stavrinakis also appointed as Departmental Manager and Dr Craig Styan as Director of Research to add to the UCL Australia management team. Subsequently, Professor Magnus Nyden was appointed as Head of Department. In 2015 a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between UniSA and UCL’s Faculty of Engineering to develop a partnership focusing on research and teaching in South Australia in fields that include minerals processing, advanced manufacturing, sustainable future energy production and protection, and care of the environment. In February 2016 we enrolled our last cohort of MSc students into the MSc in Energy and Resources Management. Magnus Nyden resigned as Head of Department in April 2017, with Craig Styan acting in the head position until the closure of the Victoria Square campus in December 2017. Following graduation, the academic and ongoing research staff will move to their new offices and lab spaces within UniSA’s Future Industries Institute at Mawson Lakes and a new phase in the history of UCL’s activities will begin.

Along the way there have been quite a number of academic, research and professional services staff working at UCL Australia, each of whom has contributed to the UCL Australia story and whose efforts have been greatly valued. Similarly, numerous people from government and industry have contributed greatly to the governance and oversight of UCL Australia through their participation in our Academic and Advisory Boards. One special mention though of somebody who has supported us all the way through our history - Dr Jane Lomax-Smith, former Lord Mayor of Adelaide and former Minister in the Rann Labor Government - was a key adviser for Professor Worton and made a significant contribution to the establishment of UCL Australia and Adelaide’s relationship with UCL in London. Jane has served on the Academic Board and subsequently the Advisory Board with distinction.

Message from the Director of TeachingThe Master of Science in Energy and Resources Management was a two-year programme designed to provide students with a rigorous and comprehensive knowledge of contemporary theory and practice in the sustainable management of energy and natural resources. The programme was a management focussed Master’s course that prepared students for management and senior executive roles by taking a industry focussed multidisciplinary approach.

The UCL Australia experience combined traditional classroom principles with practical field trips that enriched the student experience by providing operational context. South Australia provided the perfect case study for many of the issues tackled in the course because of a curious, seemingly paradoxical clash of abundance, risk and fragility of its own natural resources.

To provide the expected learning outcomes UCL Australia brought together a multidisciplinary research team to challenge assumptions, break down discipline barriers and address key interactions between energy and resource management, technology and policy. Initially providing eight modules for study by 2016 the number of options available had risen to 14:

• Energy Technology Perspectives

• Resources Development and Sustainable Management

• Economics of Energy, Resources

• Law of Energy and Resources

• Project management for Energy and Resources

• Macroeconomics and Sustainability

• International Policy and Geopolitics of Energy and Resources

• Energy Efficiency and Conservation

• Political Economy of Oil and Gas

• Financing Resource Projects

• Social Licensing

• Water Resources Management

• Nuclear Energy

• Big Data Analytics

Within these modules we made extensive use of guest lectures from UCL London and other Universities as well as industry leaders and experts to provide a broad, multi-perspective view of the issues under study. Students then got the opportunity to carry out industry relevant research projects, often hosted within, or in conjunction with, our industry partners. This strong connection between the teaching, research and industry issues meant that our students were truly engaged within the energy and resources community. This networking opportunity and a UCL qualification has resulted in many of our graduates securing good positions within the sector both locally and internationally. Personally, it has been very satisfying to see students from all over the world arrive at UCL Australia, many straight from an undergraduate qualification, and watch them develop and mature into future leaders within the energy and resources sector who UCL can be proud of.

From this perspective I am happy that we are able to take this model, with its growing network of experts, and apply it to the context of the ongoing MSc in Global Management of Natural Resources and the new Joint Masters in Sustainable Energy Systems commencing in 2018.

CARMEN WOUTERSOptimal design and regulation of residential distributed energy systemsSupervisors Dr. Adrian James, UCL Australia and Professor. Eric S. Fraga, UCL

A word from Carmen

Being at UCL, I was able to do research in a truly international environment, and be part of the greater UCL campus with collaboration possibilities in London as well as in Australia.

I had the opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary environment at UCL Australia which sparked my interests beyond energy engineering. This helped me to understand the different ways of working in various disciplines and the importance to collaborate.

My favourite memory from my time at UCL Australia is that for nearly four years I was able to share an office with inspiring friends, making fun every day while going through a shared PhD experience.

I currently live and work in The Netherlands. I am employed with DNV GL – Energy as a consultant in the field of energy markets and policy development. PhD Research Candidates

I loved the international aspect of UCL and how it permeated everyone and everything! The obvious example is with the diverse background of the people at UCL, from the staff to the students. The course content is also very global and being taught by renowned international visiting academics was a real differentiator.

I developed as a person in my time at UCL. It taught me self-discipline and gave me confidence to take on new opportunities.

The Next PhaseIn 2015 the Faculty of Engineering Sciences (FES) at UCL and the University of South Australia (UniSA) signed an agreement committing to work together to develop teaching and research in South Australia in fields that include minerals processing, advanced manufacturing, sustainable future energy production and protection, and care of the environment. The agreement, signed at joint events in Adelaide and London, signalled a program of future collaboration between UniSA’s Future Industries Institute (FII) and the FES. The partnership emphasised UCL’s ongoing commitment to sustaining its engagement with South Australia, albeit in a different format.

Since then, staff from UCL Australia, FES and the FII have begun to collaborate frequently across research and teaching and a range of activities have initiated as part of the developing partnership. For example, UCL Australia has facilitated research workshops in Adelaide and London involving FES and UniSA researchers, a joint research application has recently been submitted to the Australian Research Council and three Santos/UCL/UniSA Women in Engineering Research Fellowships have just been appointed. Adjunct appointments have been made for key staff from both institutions and representatives from each university have been invited onto selection panels for the recruitment of senior staff for the other institution.

New teaching programmes have begun, including the MSc in Global Management of Natural Resources Management, which sees students take the first two terms of their course in London, then travel to Adelaide for April – Sept, taking a UCL Australia module (Social Licensing) here, a field trip to a mine and then doing their major research project with researchers from the FII and other areas from across UniSA. The first intake saw 11 students in Adelaide in 2017, with 20 students coming to Adelaide in the next cohort in 2018. Additionally, two new cross-hemisphere MSc run between UCL and UniSA are also planned to start next year – one in Sustainable Energy Systems Management and another in Data Science.

And from December 2017, the academic staff from UCL Australia (Craig Styan, Ady James and Adeline Tubb) and research staff and PhD students associated with their groups will relocate to space in the FII and Engineering at UniSA. Embedded as a UCL group, we will work closely with UniSA colleagues to build on the foundations developed at UCL Australia and to access the new opportunities that the FES-UniSA partnership provides. For example, links developed with Mullard Space Science Lab will expand and take on new opportunities – Ady James was recently appointed co-director of the Southern Hemisphere Space Studies Program which is hosted at UniSA in collaboration with the International Space University.

The closure of UCL Australia as a stand-alone department concludes the first, successful phase of UCL’s engagement in South Australia. We invite our alumni, industry partners and other friends to join with us and our colleagues at UniSA as we take on the many exciting opportunities that will develop in our next phase of the FES-UniSA partnership.
