institution

Central Queensland University, known as CQUniversity Australia, is the country’s largest university based in regional Australia. We offer an excellent range of vocational, higher education and research pathways, offering students from Australia, and more than 85 countries, exceptional choice when it comes to quality education.

Our students consistently achieve some of the best full-time employment rates and starting salaries in Australia. With some of the nation’s highest ratios of students from low socio-economic, mature age, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and first-in-family backgrounds, we are proud to define ourselves by who we embrace rather than who we exclude.

We are a benchmark leader for how universities should engage with industry to deliver practical, applied research with true impact to local and global communities. Our renowned research institutions cover key industries including:

  • Australian Indigenous health equity
  • domestic and family violence
  • future farming systems
  • intelligent systems
  • railway engineering
  • regional advancement of learning
  • sleep and physical activity research
  • tourism and regional opportunities.

 

Social innovation principles are embedded across our courses, empowering students with the skills tomorrow’s employers are seeking to solve the complex challenges of this century. Our commitment to making a difference sees us recognised as Australia’s first Social Enterprise University certified by Social Traders; and first and only Ashoka U Changemaker Campus, joining an exclusive international network of universities committed to social innovation, entrepreneurship and impact.
