   QUT has a history that dates back to 1849. In 1990, the Queensland University of Technology—a combination of four predecessor institutions—merged with the Brisbane College of Advanced Education—a culmination of seven predecessor institutions—to form the current Queensland University of Technology.
   QUT’s predecessor institutions include:
    Brisbane School of Arts (1849)
    Brisbane Technical College (1882)
    Central Technical College (1908)
    Brisbane Kindergarten Training College (1911)
    Queensland Teachers Training College (1914)
    Kedron Park Teachers College (1961)
    Queensland Institute of Technology (1965)
    Brisbane Kindergarten Teachers College (1965)
    North Brisbane College of Advanced Education (1974)
    Kelvin Grove College of Advanced Education (1976)
    Brisbane College of Advanced Education (1982)
    Queensland University of Technology (1989)
   The Gardens Point campus was once solely occupied by the 19th Century building, Old Government House. In 1909, during the relocation of the Governor's residence, Old Government House and the surrounding five hectares were set-aside for both a University and a Technical College. The first university on the site was the University of Queensland. This University was moved to St Lucia in 1945, where it remains today.
