About our program

The Monash KMRP is researching how to support knowledge work through the application of Task-based Knowledge Management theory. The research addresses the design and development of information and communications technology (ICT) applications to support knowledge work. It focuses on work practices in order to understand how work is actually done and to reveal the knowledge processes that underlie those practices. This understanding informs the design of computer based systems to support the work task and to effectively deploy knowledge to support that activity. Our research is focused on the pragmatic, conceptual and cognitive practices that define knowledge work. Industry sectors and research domains for our project include biology, immunology, epidemiology, meteorology, defense, food safety and clinical and management aspects of healthcare.

KM at Monash is now a part of the Centre for Organisational and Social Informatics (COSI).
