Queensland University of Technology (QUT) has a history that dates to 1849 when the Brisbane School of Arts was established. Queensland Institute of Technology (QIT) succeeded the Central Technical College and was formed in 1965.{{citation|url=http://www.qut.edu.au/about/the-university/history|title=History|publisher=Queensland University of Technology|archive-date=5 July 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140705112843/https://www.qut.edu.au/about/our-university/history|url-status=live}} The current QUT was established as a university in 1989 after having been several predecessor institutions listed below:

• Brisbane School of Arts (1849–1881)
• Brisbane Technical College (1882–1907)
• Central Technical College (1908–1964)
• Queensland Institute of Technology (1965–1988)

Brisbane College of Advanced Education was formed in 1982, which itself is a combination of multiple predecessor institutions shown in the list below:

• Brisbane Kindergarten Training College (1911)
• Brisbane Kindergarten Teachers College (1965)
• Queensland Teachers' Training College (1914)
• Kelvin Grove Teachers College (1961)
• Kelvin Grove College of Advanced Education (1976)
• Kedron Park Teachers College (1961)
• North Brisbane College of Advanced Education (1974)

In 1988, the Queensland University of Technology Act was passed for the grant of university status to Queensland Institute of Technology (QIT). As a result, QIT was granted university status and was operational as Queensland University of Technology (QUT) beginning in January 1989. The Brisbane College of Advanced Education joined with QUT in 1990.

The Gardens Point campus was once entirely housed in the 19th-century former Government House of Queensland. In 1909, during the relocation of the governor's residence, the 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 which was moved to St Lucia in 1945, where it remains today.{{Citation needed|date=June 2021}}

Gardens Point campus is located in Brisbane's city centre, beside the Brisbane River and adjacent to the City Botanic Gardens and Queensland Parliament House. At the centre of the campus is the Old Government House which was built in 1862 and re-opened in 2009.{{citation|url=http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=32684|title=Old Government House hosts 90,000 visitors in first year|date=10 June 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130522082302/http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=32684|archive-date=22 May 2013}} The faculties of Business, Law, and Science and Engineering are based at this campus, such as other non-important facilities, such as: Basketball courts, general parks, and others.

Gardens Point campus hosts the Gardens Cultural Precinct, comprising the Gardens Theatre and QUT Art Museum, which offer a full theatre and exhibition program.

• The QUT Art Museum houses the university's art collection, which focuses on contemporary Australian art, including painting, sculpture, decorative art and works on paper.{{citation|url=http://www.artmuseum.qut.edu.au/collection/|publisher=Queensland University of Technology|title=Collection|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140306155936/http://www.artmuseum.qut.edu.au/collection/|archive-date=6 March 2014|url-status=live}} The museum opened in 2000 and attracted about 350,000 people in its first decade of operations.{{citation|url=http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=32428|title=Art Museum attracts 350,000 people in first decade|date=18 May 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130522082147/http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=32428|archive-date=22 May 2013|publisher=Queensland University of Technology}} The building is a 1930s neo-classical revivalist building designed by Peddle Thorpe Architects, Brisbane.
• The Gardens Theatre features professional theatre, children's theatre, and student showcases.{{citation|url=http://www.gardenstheatre.qut.edu.au|title=Gardens Theatre|publisher=Queensland University of Technology|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140302021547/http://www.gardenstheatre.qut.edu.au/|archive-date=2 March 2014}} The Gardens Theatre is a medium-sized venue, formerly known as the Basil Jones Theatre, and was renovated with assistance from the Queensland Government. It was reopened as the Gardens Theatre in 1999 by then-Premier Peter Beattie. It provides space for QUT productions and visiting performers, and is the only theatre complex in Brisbane's central business district.

The Science and Engineering Precinct was completed in November 2012. It brings together teaching and research in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines. The {{AUD}}200 million required for the precinct came from QUT ({{AUD}}65 million), the Australian Government ({{AUD}}75 million), the Queensland Government ({{AUD}}35 million), and Atlantic Philanthropies ({{AUD}}25 million).{{citation|publisher=Queensland University of Technology|url=http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=29511|title=$25M gift for QUT's new Science and Technology Precinct|date=27 July 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130522081351/http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=29511|archive-date=22 May 2013|url-status=live}}{{citation|url=http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=27916|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130522080913/http://www.qut.edu.au/about/news/news?news-id=27916|archive-date=22 May 2013|title=Federal budget delivers $75M to QUT's science and technology precinct|publisher=Queensland University of Technology|date=14 May 2009|url-status=live}}

In November 2008, Carseldine teaching, research, and support activities were relocated to Kelvin Grove and Gardens Point campuses.

In 2009, State Library of Queensland, the Queensland Library Foundation, and QUT Business School collaborated to establish the Queensland Business Leaders Hall of Fame (QBLHOF) initiative.{{Cite web|url=http://leaders.slq.qld.gov.au/|title=Queensland Business Leaders Hall of Fame|website=Queensland Business Leaders Hall of Fame|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170806060659/http://leaders.slq.qld.gov.au/|archive-date=6 August 2017|url-status=live|access-date=6 August 2017}} The QBLHOF recognises outstanding contributions made by organisations, companies and individuals to develop the Queensland economy and society, both contemporary and historical. A governing committee determines a list of inductees based on a set of criteria including:

• Sustained leadership
• Major financial contribution
• Pioneering
• Outstanding contribution
• Achievement of iconic status

The inductees are announced at a gala event each year in July. Since 2014, the QBLHOF has also awarded an annual Fellowship, to recipients working on a research project that utilises the resources of the John Oxley Library to produce new interpretations of Queensland's business history.

QUT has come under renewed criticism around its workplace culture, allegations of bullying and misrepresentation of job losses in 2020–21.{{cite news |title='Increasingly toxic culture': Bullying accusations at major Qld university |url=https://www.couriermail.com.au/education-queensland/increasingly-toxic-culture-bullying-accusations-at-major-qld-university/news-story/d3a677ea195add95cd5a92223314171c |access-date=2022-11-11 |publisher=The Courier Mail |date=2021-04-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220309134413/https://www.couriermail.com.au/education-queensland/increasingly-toxic-culture-bullying-accusations-at-major-qld-university/news-story/d3a677ea195add95cd5a92223314171c |archive-date=2022-03-09 |url-status=live |url-access=subscription}} Many academic and professional staff have expressed living in fear of this workplace, in the most significant publicity the university has received in several years. Initial steps towards change in response to these claims have been made, although this has been met with scepticism by staff, citing issues with the concept of "leadership training" for executive managers, and the lack of urgency in implementing a safe method of complaint.{{cite news |title='Toxic' uni bosses act after 'distressing' claims |url=https://www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/qut-senior-executives-headed-for-leadership-training/news-story/bc7d0f073098530af2816bb8c1da24f6 |access-date=2022-11-11 |publisher=The Courier Mail |url-access=subscription}}
