Welcome to Wilto Yerlo
The Centre for Australian Indigenous Research and Studies is
located within the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences and comprises two key Indigenous
units, Wilto Yerlo and the Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Music (CASM).
Both units have retained their names as entities within the Centre. Indigenous research and the development
of Indigenous degree programs will further strengthen current activities and services. The Director of
the Centre for Australian Indigenous Research and Studies is Professor
Roger Thomas.
