Project

KIRK are currently completing the USC Moreton Bay Stage 2 Project - a fast-tracked teaching, research & health project for the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC). The expansion will include research spaces, teaching and social hub spaces, administration offices, sports facilities and car park.

The project involves 3 new buildings (Buildings B, C and D) at USC Moreton Bay Campus and is an exciting and transformative opportunity not just for the university but also the Moreton Bay community. The project holds a key role in the development, enhancement and extension of the built 'Knowledge Spine' as one of the dominant masterplanning strategies for the campus

The campus expansion is another step towards creating a thriving innovation ecosystem at The Mill at Moreton Bay. These buildings will significantly increase the space available for our teaching and research, as well as provide our students with sporting facilities and more areas for them to study, collaborate and socialise. Our main focus is to provide high quality face-to-face, interactive teaching at USC Moreton Bay and this campus expansion will help us enhance our students’ experience of attending university.

Most of the proposed building structure will be built from prefabricated engineered timber, providing a fast construction process and sustainable building solution

KIRK Director

The development will help accommodate the growing student population at USC Moreton Bay, which has exceeded expectations during the campus’s first two years. The strong demand for university education in the region is clearly evident.
