Creating our future
We are working in partnership with academics and students to enhance the campus learning experience.
Our technical and professional staff deliver quality design, installation and project management consultancy services for all University teaching spaces. The Manager of Learning Space Support is the Project Director for a programme of work designed to upgrade the campus teaching infrastructure, support the Teaching and Learning Plan, and maintain the University of Melbourne as a superb campus-based institution.
