UC’s Future Vision

A future that connects neighbourhoods, community and people with education, lifestyle and business. It’s a future that keeps us all forever young, through the pursuit of learning.

This will include $5+billion of property investment, 60,000+ sqm increase in core university facilities and 210,000 m2 GFA increase in partnership and commercial buildings and/or tenancies.
