Working at CIRA

Our commitment to Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion 

At Curtin Institute of Radio Astronomy we value the participation of each member of the institute and work to ensure all colleagues, students, and visitors have an enjoyable and productive experience. We enjoy an equitable, diverse, tolerant, and friendly work culture. Decisions are made in a way that ensures we all flourish, regardless of personal circumstances, including age, disability, role, gender, sexual orientation, ability, political opinion, cultural and religious backgrounds, and family situation. At CIRA we: 

• celebrate and value diversity;  
• foster a fair and respectful workplace culture;
• and attract and retain people with diverse capabilities and experience. 

The recent Australian Pathway to Diversity in STEM Review highlighted the need for more ambitious and strategic action to increase diversity in STEM. We recognise the role we must play in this area.  

As part of the Curtin community, we support the values of Integrity, Respect, Courage, Excellence, and Impact.  We are guided by a range of strategies, policies and plans that help us maintain a diverse and inclusive environment to work and learn, including the Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Policy and Diversity in the Workplace Procedures.
