University City of the Future

La Trobe University is evolving into a world-class ‘University City of the Future’. Over the next decade, we are investing in new infrastructure that will turn our campus 'inside out’. Our campus will become a place to live, learn, work, socialise and stay healthy.
We are creating new education facilities and housing, in addition to major new precincts including a Health and Wellbeing Hub and world-class Sports Park.
Central to our strategy of turning the campus into a city of the future is developing our Research and Innovation Precinct to enable industry to co-locate on our campus. This will create a vibrant hub of opportunity, engagement and collaboration through the entire research and innovation value chain.
We will drive job growth with a focus on core industry sectors in which La Trobe demonstrates existing world-class research and innovation: Agriculture, Food and Environment, Health and Wellbeing, Digital Transformation and we will work closely with sector-leading partners to co-develop and co-deliver new subjects, courses and programs which directly address workforce needs.
Our plans also include brokering relationships between industry, entrepreneurs and government to help foster a culture of collaboration. If you are interested in talking to us about how you can become involved and be part of our future, please reach out to us.
