The Cube is one of the world’s largest digital interactive learning and display spaces, taking over two storeys and stretching across 48 multi-touch screens. As a central hub for scientific and digital exploration, The Cube is dedicated to providing an inspiring, explorative and participatory experience of QUT’s Science and Engineering research. Collaborating with QUT researchers and drawing on knowledge and data from research areas in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), The Cube facilitates opportunities for the public to discover, visualise and contribute to research projects. Environments will be replicated at a real-world scale, allowing the public, as ‘citizen scientists’, to experience real project scenarios and explore big questions of the 21st century. The Cube inspires and engages the next generation of thinkers and doers with an extensive outreach to schools, including hands-on and interactive workshops and public programs for high school students and QUT undergraduate and postgraduate students.
