| In 1958 the Commonwealth Government founded the Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering (AINSE). The purpose of the Institute was to provide access for universities and other tertiary institutions to the facilities at Lucas Heights. 'It has a specific mandate to arrange for the training of scientific research workers and the award of scientific research studentships in matters associated with nuclear science and engineering. Today nuclear science at the Lucas Heights Science and Technology Centre is devoted to supporting activities and research in a wide range of disciplines. These have applications in advanced technology, manufacturing, mining, agriculture, medicine and environmental protection. All are of vital importance to Australia's future."
