The University of Queensland

For more than a century, The University of Queensland (UQ) has maintained a global reputation for creating positive change by delivering knowledge leadership for a better world.

We consistently rank in the world’s top universities, is one of only three Australian members of the global Universitas 21, and we’re a founding member of the prestigious Group of Eight (Go8) universities.

More than 51,000 students study across UQ’s three beautiful campuses in South-East Queensland including 13,300 international students who contribute to our diverse, supportive and inclusive campus community.

UQ has won more Australian Awards for University Teaching than any other university, and our greatest assets are the 247,000 successful graduates, who include more than 13,300 PhDs.

In 2017, UQ was ranked first in Australia by the prestigious Nature Index for life sciences, and 78th overall in the world, and was awarded more Australian Research Council funding ($70.6 million) than any other Australian university in the 2015–16 financial year grant announcements.
