Education City

Education City is an 18-hectare precinct that will eventually house up to 10,000 students. This unique campus is designed to bring together education, training and learning providers in the one location, providing the full spectrum of education from childcare to post-graduate studies. Offering multiple and flexible learning pathways for students of all ages and backgrounds, this unique education and research hub is a glimpse into the future of learning.

Stage One already completed
The $85 million first stage of Education City opened in March 2006, and is now home to more than 1000 students. The University of Southern Queensland is already well established with its first stage completed, and many other education providers have also seized the opportunity to join the project at this early stage.

And because right from the beginning, we’ve developed supporting services such as student accommodation, retail village and child-care, there’s already a great community feel here.

Greater Springfield is dedicated to growing this element of its project by investigating further partnership opportunities with public and private education providers wanting to invest in a promising future and deliver education with a point of difference.
