In 1994, it embraced the name Central Queensland University. In 2008, it became CQUniversity in acknowledgment of the organizations' extension past the Central Queensland area.
Beginnings
CQUniversity's forerunner organization, the Queensland Institute of Technology (Capricornia), was built up in Rockhampton in 1967 as a provincial part of the Queensland Institute of Technology (Brisbane).
Nonetheless, the initial steps to set up a college in Rockhampton were taken as ahead of schedule as the 1940s. In 1941, the Queensland Labor Premier, William Forgan Smith, presented area 17 of the National Education Co-appointment and University of Queensland Amendment Act, which accommodated the formation of college schools outside Brisbane. In 1944 and 1945, a progression of Rockhampton assignments campaigned the Queensland government for a college school, however after the University of Queensland set up a system of commonplace examination places in the last part of the 1940s the issue became dormant.
Rockhampton's college crusade continued during the 1950s as Central Queensland turned into a rising substantial industrial base, with creating coal mineshafts and Gladstone rising as the center of a light metal. In the Queensland parliament in November 1956, the nearby part for Rockhampton (H R Gardner) expressed "more sufficient offices for specialized instruction" were required for the area and, speaking to the way of thinking of a "reasonable go", he encouraged that Rockhampton individuals be given "similar open doors as those in Brisbane". In 1958, P J Goldston, an architect (later, Commissioner for Railways,) mooted the chance of a Central Queensland college with Rockhampton engineers and after further network conversation, the Rockhampton Mayor, Alderman R B J Pilbeam, assembled the principal open conference on 3 March 1959 at which the Central Queensland University Development Association (UDA) was constituted.
The UDA introduced college recommendations to government and, in 1961, the Queensland government held 161 hectares (400 sections of land) of government land at Parkhurst (North Rockhampton) on the Bruce Highway close to the Yeppoon side road as a tertiary training site. The establishment, at last, was settled in March 1965, when the Commonwealth government's Martin Report (on the extension of tertiary instruction) was postponed in parliament by Prime Minister Menzies―who declared the establishment of another style of tertiary foundation at both Rockhampton and Toowoomba. The new institutes―Rockhampton's was named The Queensland Institute of Technology, Capricornia (QITC)―were associated with the primary Queensland Institute of Technology grounds in Brisbane and did not have the self-rule of colleges, being constrained by the Queensland Education Department.

Some understudies dozed briefly on sleeping cushions in the container while hanging tight for the principal private school to open.

The CIAE turned into the University College of Central Queensland in 1990 and increased full college status in 1992. Around then it was known as the University of Central Queensland. The name was changed in 1994 to Central Queensland University.
