Central Queensland University - Cairns Campus Overview
CQUniversity is one of Australia’s largest regional universities, with a presence in every mainland state and a strong reputation for excellence in education, real-world graduate outcomes, and industry collaboration. With over 30,000 students studying online and on campus across the country, we offer real choices through a comprehensive range of more than 250 qualifications, from short courses and trades to undergraduate, postgraduate, and research higher degrees.
As Queensland’s only dual-sector university, we provide flexible study pathways, industry-aligned training, and personalised support to help our students succeed, wherever they are. Our strong regional focus, inclusive approach, and leadership in online learning ensure our students receive a quality education, no matter their location or background.
Cairns Campus
CQUniversity has one of the largest and fastest-growing footprints of any university in Australia, and the Cairns campus is one of the newest campuses in CQUniversity's network of 20+ locations across Australia. The Cairns campus supports more than 2,200 on-campus and online students across the Cairns region. The Cairns campus, set in the heart of the CBD, means that students are a short walk away from the famous Cairns Lagoon, esplanade walking paths, sports grounds, retailers and many café’s, restaurants and bars.
At CQU Cairns, students enjoy a fresh and individualised learning experience coupled with small class sizes, the latest teaching technology and expert lecturers, all within a supportive and inclusive learning environment. With flexible learning options, students can choose to study on-campus, online or ‘mixed mode’ – a combination of both. Whilst we are proud to offer students a great on-campus experience, at CQUniversity, we value and pride ourselves on our online delivery, helping students from remote and regional parts of Australia, including Cairns and surrounds access quality education and thrive in an online environment.
Our Connections With Community
The Cairns campus has strong links to both community and industry and is committed to playing a pivotal role in the economic and social development of the Cairns region through its partnerships and research capacity. Some of these connections include the CQUniversity Cairns Taipans, a community partnership that spans more than 9 years and is a valuable component of our community engagement. CQU Cairns continues to support local organisations and initiatives such as the Business Liaison Association, Cairns Chamber of Commerce, Chamber of Commerce and Industry Queensland (CCIQ), Advance Cairns, Study Cairns and Regional Development Australia (RDA). To find out more about CQU Cairns’ community and industry partnerships, visit our Engage with Cairns page.
With significant local research capability in built environment, renewable energies, automation and smart grid, artificial intelligence, internet of things, health and mental health, psychological science, education, sport and exercise science and digital media/arts technologies, CQUniversity Cairns makes a great partner for local industries to thrive through connection to new knowledge and commercialization potential.
