New national funding of $70.8 million will be invested in better facilities for UQ students and staff in areas ranging from innovations in animal health to modern learning spaces.

Construction taking place at UQ Gatton
The funds are split between a $47.2 million contribution towards the completion of new UQ School of Veterinary Science facilities at Gatton (the total project is worth more than $98.5 million), and $23.6 million to create or renew teaching and learning infrastructure.
The veterinary science precinct is currently under construction at UQ Gatton, and is due for completion in December, with the school to be relocated by February 2010. The small animal clinic and hospital will continue to operate at St Lucia.
UQ Vice-Chancellor Professor Paul Greenfield said the funds would help enhance the experience of students and staff and lead to better outcomes for partners in industry, research, government, the non-government sector and the community.
“The $23.6 million for teaching and learning infrastructure is a welcome surprise for UQ. We had asked the government to fund the veterinary project but had not sought the $23.6 million,” Professor Greenfield said.
The government has advised UQ and other universities of one-off funding for teaching and learning spaces in 2009, from the Teaching and Learning Capital Fund for Higher Education.
“I congratulate the government for making university infrastructure a feature of its efforts to stimulate the economy,” Professor Greenfield said.
