Who we are

We are driving change in regional education by empowering  Mount Isa to fulfil its potential through higher education. We are increasing access by providing a highly connected learning community in our region to overcome the barriers to success.

Why we are here

Regional and rural communities deserve quality opportunities to pursue their dreams without the need to relocate. Our mission is to provide regional people with the space and tools they need to create a vibrant and more prosperous future for themselves and their wider community.

What we do

We have created a dedicated learning and study space in Mount Isa that has been designed for regional people by regional people. Students have free access to high-speed Internet, modern technology, and general academic resources, all delivered here at CUC Mount Isa. Students have the opportunity to build a network of like-minded fellow students and can take advantage of being part of a state-wide learning community.

Who we are here for

All people of Mount Isa who are studying higher education from any Australian university or non-university higher education provider. If you’re a local business or service provider interested in engaging locally trained university graduates and students or hosting student placements and work-based learning, we are here for you too.

How it all began

CUC Mount Isa opened August 2024 as an affiliate of the Country Universities Centre, with support from the Federal Government under the Regional University Study Hubs program.
