Iconic buildings on a vibrant campus

Our vibrant campus is next door to Central Station and part of a precinct that's home to the ABC, the Powerhouse Museum, TAFE Ultimo, the International Convention Centre (ICC), Darling Harbour and Chinatown.

Our campus design reflects our commitment to future-focused learning, high-impact research, and effective partnerships with industry and community.

Over the past decade, our campus has been transformed by our City Campus Master Plan to support excellence in teaching and research. The $1 billion-plus investment has delivered iconic new buildings – including the Frank Gehry-designed Dr Chau Chak Wing Building – and state-of-the-art facilities that give UTS staff, students and researchers access to cutting-edge technologies as they develop the solutions to the challenges of tomorrow.

While our building exteriors are distinctive, their interiors have all been designed to support the hands-on, practice-oriented approach to teaching and research that UTS is known for. The vision for the campus transformation was developed in tandem with the award-winning learning.futures initiative, which aligns future-focused curriculum with informed technology use.

A sustainable campus

Our campus is also a physical reflection of our sustainability goals. Our newest buildings have all achieved five- or six-star Green Star Certified ratings, with sustainable design and engineering initiatives a prominent component of their design.

Across our campus, innovative initiatives are reducing our electricity consumption,  potable water use and waste to landfill. Our facilities support our students and staff to enhance their own sustainable practices through recycling, reducing single-use plastics and using sustainable transport.
