North Terrace Campus...


HUGHES PLAZA

Hughes Plaza then...

Hughes Plaza now...

The barren void of Hughes Plaza is

gone. In its place is a three level

student space called Hub Central,

which hums with student activity at

all hours of day and night.”


Co-creation, why now?

Life Impact | The University of Adelaide Co-Creation and Innovation in Learning Space Design

Where we were...


To provide the best on-campus experience within the

Australian national tertiary education sector for all our

students.

To transform student experience through the provision of suitable facilities and seamless services to support their academic activities.

To improve attraction and retention rates, securing the

University’s position within the Go8. We will achieve this by

placing a specific emphasis on the undergraduate experience within

this project

To actively engage with the Community at large to support life

long learning
