“This is about giving students in South West Sydney access to world-class education where they live and work,” Professor Lu said.
“Liverpool is one of Australia’s fastest-growing regions and we are proud to be part of its future. Our new campus will put students at the centre, strengthen our local social and economic impact, and create exciting opportunities through partnerships with the community that will help shape the region’s future.

In December, UOW announced its move to the Liverpool Civic Place, which will deliver fit-for-purpose teaching facilities in a vibrant precinct from early 2026. The next phase of construction on the site will be complete in 2028 and help future-proof UOW’s presence in Liverpool CBD.
Liverpool already boasts UOW’s fastest growing student cohort, and the new campus will enable student numbers to grow from 1500 to 4000, helping meet the demand for higher education in South West Sydney.
The new development will deliver 11 storeys of university space alongside flexible life sciences facilities, co-living apartments, retail and landscaped public areas. Its location near Liverpool Station will provide easy access for students and staff from across the region.
UOW has recently signed a three-year MoU with the Liverpool City Council, renewing its commitment to collaboration in education, research and the development of the region.
Built Development Director Jono Cottee said the project represents a significant step in Liverpool’s transformation into a hub for education and innovation.
“Built is proud to deliver this state-of-the-art education facility, marking a transformative moment for Liverpool and South West Sydney. This project not only reinforces Liverpool’s position as a centre of education and innovation but also delivers critical infrastructure to meet the needs of the region’s rapidly growing community,” Mr. Cottee said.
“By partnering with the 榴莲视频app of 榴莲视频app and co-locating world-class education and life sciences facilities, adjacent to Liverpool’s first co-living building, Built is ensuring Liverpool remains a vibrant, liveable, and connected city. This development will generate new economic activity and provide housing options that support people working where they live, strengthening Liverpool’s position as a dynamic urban centre.” he added.
Liverpool City Council Mayor Ned Mannoun welcomed the start of construction, praising its alignment with the Council’s vision for the city’s growth.
“This development further cements the strong bonds between UOW and Liverpool Council,” Mayor Mannoun said.
“It also sends a strong message that Liverpool’s CBD is not only growing, but is fast becoming the location of choice for major organisations and it’s all part of aim to be a leading education city that attracts students and other educational institutions.
“We welcome this continued expansion of 榴莲视频app activity in Liverpool and are excited the resources it brings to students in our local government area.”
UOW has been committed to Liverpool since 2017, consistently growing its education offerings in response to community demand.
From 2026, a suite of exciting new courses will come online to help address skills shortages in critical local industries, including the Bachelor of Social Work, Bachelor of Exercise Science, Bachelor of Nutrition Science, Bachelor of Criminology, Bachelor of Medical and Health Sciences, and Bachelor of Exercise Science and Rehabilitation.
