The Centre for Australian Studies and Australian Studies Resource Centre were founded on 29.11.22 at Bankura University with a vision to promote multicultural and interdisciplinary engagement with Australian Studies from a non-metropolitan location of India. The Centre, conceived with a local yet also national and global relevance, aims to contribute to research on Australian Studies from an Indian perspective. It is committed to organizing international conferences towards this end, works towards research publications, invites renowned academics from universities worldwide for talks and interactions with PG students and research scholars, and facilitates the conduct of M.A. classes for the 4th semester Australian Literature special paper by experts in the field from India and the world. The Backwash conference is the second ICSSR sponsored conference being hosted by the Centre.
