About

Regional University Study Hubs

Regional University Study Hubs (formerly known as Regional University Centres) support students in rural, regional and remote Australia to access, participate and succeed in tertiary education without having to leave their communities. 

Regional study hubs provide physical, campus-like spaces and support for students who are studying university or VET courses online at any Australian institution. Centres provide students with infrastructure - such as study spaces with high-speed internet access and video conferencing; administrative guidance; academic support services; and pastoral care. These facilities and supports provide an alternative to moving away for study and enhance the experience of students studying within their own community. 

Each study hub is unique and embedded within its community. Each hub reflects the community it serves including the place, people, local industry and educational provision. A list of the Regional University Study Hubs and their contact details can be accessed through the locations tab.
