JCU is an integral part of the region with major campuses in Cairns and Townsville and a firm presence across Tropical North Queensland including major research and teaching facilities in Mt Isa, Thursday Island and Mackay. JCU is the only regional university in Queensland to be ranked among the world’s top 400 universities by all three major global rankings. JCU is exceptionally well-placed to reach communities across the region and work innovatively with partners and participants to extend the resilience of the communities as they respond to the impacts of drought and other systemic risks.
