Sowing the Seeds of Tasmania’s STEM Future

The University of Tasmania today released a high-level concept plan for a science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) precinct at Sandy Bay to support 21st century teaching and research.

Pro Vice-Chancellor, Campus Life, Professor Nicholas Farrelly said new STEM facilities were critical to Tasmania’s future and would require investment in the order of $500 million.

“The concept plan, shaped by input from staff, students and stakeholders, is for a green, accessible Sandy Bay campus that brings the majority of STEM activities together around a central heart,” Professor Farrelly said.

The project would be delivered in three key stages ensuring continuity of teaching and research activities on site during detailed design and carefully managed construction and transition.
