Contact Directory Service

Searching the Directory

To search the UWA Contact Directory Service, visit the Search page. You can search for people, sections or research expertise by choosing the appropriate tab at the top of the Search pane.

All searches within the Contact Directory will match partial and full words and are not case-sensitive. Do not use wildcard characters (such as *) as these are redundant and may return an error.

To browse the Directory, click on the Alphabetical Listing or University by section links in the left-hand menu. This enables you to click and scroll through the organisational sections of the University to find the information you need.

Searching for a person

This is the default view of the main Search pane. Enter a name or position in the respective search field. You can narrow your search by selecting the category (Staff Only or Students Only) from the drop-down list.

For example to search by name:
"fred" will match "Fred", "Frederick", "Wilfred" and so on.

Click on advanced search to search by more specific data such as phone number, section, email and so on.

The results of your search will be listed. Click on a name in the list to see the full entry for that person.

Searching for sections

Select the Section tab at the top of the Search pane. Enter the name or part of the name of an organisational unit and click on the Search button.

For example:
"financ" will match "Finance Division (Guild)", "Financial Services", "Financial Studies", "Housing and Financial Aid" and so on.

The results of your search will be listed. Click on a section name to see the full entry for that section.

Alternatively, click on the Alphabetical Listing or University by section links to browse through the sections and find what you need.

Searching for research expertise

Select the Research Expertise tab at the top of the Search pane. This search connects you to UWA's research expertise database. Enter either an area of research or a name, or select a section from the drop-down list.

The results of your search will be listed. Click on an individual research area/name or click on the Expand All button at the top of the page to see the full results of your search.
