The facilities
The University of Queensland maintains a number of campuses across Queensland, with six key research and teaching faculties: Business and Law, Engineering and Technology, Health sciences, Social sciences, Medicine and Science. The main campus of St Lucia is neatly tucked in a bend of the Brisbane River and has long been widely recognised for its natural beauty. With sandstone buildings and research facilities situated alongside lecture theatres and Queensland’s largest research library, at its centre sits the heritage-listed Great Court. This fantastic open area is the beating heart of the campus and is connected by an undercover arcade. The Medical School and Research Institute is housed at Herston in the heart of the Hospital district and sits conveniently close to the city centre. Gatton campus in regional Queensland is the QU centre for teaching in agriculture and the environment.
Transport and access
Conveniently serviced by bus, train and ferry, St Lucia is well connected to the city as well as just 30 mins from Iglu Brisbane City using public transport options. A direct bus to the campus leaves from right outside the front door. The Herston campus is also easily accessible by bus and train. It’s a 10-minute bus ride to Iglu Kelvin and just 20-minute walk from nearby Fortitude Valley. Car parking is limited at both campuses, so public transport is advised.
