QUT is advancing its data and AI capability through a coordinated partnership model that connects corporate operations, academic disciplines, research leadership and strategic technology vendors. By modernising its data foundations with Databricks and activating a new partnership with the Centre for Data Science, QUT is enabling scalable analytics, stronger governance, uplifted staff capability and richer research translation. 

These partnerships are also creating new opportunities for student employability through industry aligned learning, applied analytics projects and authentic data experiences. This session will share how QUT is building an institution wide data ecosystem that improves operational insight, accelerates innovation and develops graduates who are ready for industry.
