  昆士兰科技大学 Queensland University of Technology (QUT),又译昆士兰理工大学,设于府城布里斯本。1990年升格为综合型大学;1993年获首届“年度澳大利亚大学”肯定。校风自信、教学严谨、修业过程严正,学子富实践精神、抗压性高、竞合意识强烈。毕业生在昆士兰州工程界及企业界素有举足轻重的影响力;校友人数颇众、活跃且贡献良多。2007年大学评鉴,昆科大在全国38所之中,排名第10,全球排名前200大;现为澳大利亚规模第二大的教学型大学(第一大为蒙纳许大学)。

  历史

  1908年QUT正式创校,设址于城中的原校总区Gardens Point隶属于中央技术学院(Central Technical College),负责国家技职培训的教育

  1965年改制为昆士兰技术学院 (Queensland Institute of Technology),工商法导向,自信严谨的校风此时逐渐形成

  1990年奉准升格为昆士兰科技大学 (Queensland University of Technology),为府城的第二所综合型大学

  校务近况

  QUT现时校总区在奇云角(Kelvin Grove),离布里斯本市中心仅2公里,此外还有位处城中的主校区花园角(Gardens Point)、市郊北部的卡苏丁(Carseldine)分校以及位于昆士兰州中部地区的卡布澈(Caboolture)分校;QUT的无线网络设施遍布校园各角,是全澳早期校内无线化建设最先进的大学之一。

  据2007年昆科大资料,QUT学生计有39,250名,其中近5,400名为国际学生、非在校学生3,940名、海外就学生372名。目前约7,960名学生于花园角校区内的商学院求学,是澳大利亚最大、学子竞争最激烈的学院之一。素与美国行销大师菲利普·科特勒任教之西北大学交流,教授互访频繁。2004年隶属该学院、教授MBA课程的“布里斯本企管研究所”(BGSB)获得英国《金融时报》肯定,名列全球前一百大排行榜,讲座不绝,在澳大利亚工商界享有盛名。2007年,QUT被评为全澳第十,排名全球前两百大。

  2007年政府研究资金(Australia Research Coucil)的分发中,QUT获得了澳币$ 4,121,030 的补助。

  校务发展定位

  校址设于城中昆士兰州议会旁之QUT主校区-Gardens Point自创校起即以教授理工、法律和商务企管起家;校园面积小,高楼林立,其强项今扩及资讯科技、建筑、工业设计、工程和环境科学,学生约21,890名。

  位于Kelvin Grove校总区内新设的创意产业学院乃目前QUT的重点校务计划,其强项尚有英语和国际学生过渡课程、健康服务、语文、教育和法律研究,学生约10,750名。

  卡苏丁分校 强项在人文和社工服务,学生计2,014名。2008年4月,QUT表示卡苏丁校经多年注掖,新生最终仍流向城中主校区Gardens Point与校总区Kelvin Grove;其资金因此将逐年递减予前两大校区,未来将重新定位以便资源能更适当地使用。卡布澈分校则持续现有定位和营运。

  卡布澈分校 旨在服务昆士兰中部地区的学子,强项尚待QUT及澳大利亚教育部定位,学生有279名。
