The project is a model for educational precincts internationally setting a new benchmark for contemporary and sustainable design.

The Queensland University of Technology Education Precinct redefines how learning environments can connect people, place and knowledge. This six-level, $94.4 mil facility houses the Faculty of Education and the Oodgeroo Unit, QUT’s centre for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education and research.

The precinct fosters an active partnership between teachers and students, a student-led, staff-assisted model, encouraging personalised learning and peer-to-peer engagement. Immersive, light-filled teaching spaces, informal learning terraces and shared resources create a living theatre of education, reinforcing QUT’s ambition to be a leader in contemporary pedagogy and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
