Mr Egan said the St Lucia campus Draft Master Plan 2015 presented a clear vision and strong framework for a physical environment that would continue to support UQ’s position as a landmark centre of knowledge leadership.

“The St Lucia campus, including the Long Pocket and Avalon Theatre precincts, has grown into a thriving community with a distinct sense of place, people and purpose,” Mr Egan said.

“This plan aims to guide sustainable development of the physical environment so that it can continue to provide a unique, memorable and desirable campus experience for current and future generations,” he said.
