A draft masterplan for the future of QUT’s Garden Points and Kelvin Grove campus has been put forward for public consultation, with major changes earmarked for the two campuses.

The 2018 to 2028 Draft Estate masterplan said the 10-year plan was needed because there have been significant changes to the university’s operating environment since the last plan was approved in 2009.

The draft plan said almost 50,000 students were enrolled at QUT in 2017 and were supported by more than 10,000 staff.

Vice-chancellor Margaret Sheil AO said the plan would continue to guide development and management of the campuses.
