The University of Queensland

The University of Queensland (UQ) is one of Australia’s leading teaching and research universities. For more than a century, UQ has educated and worked with outstanding people to deliver knowledge leadership for a better world. UQ ranks among the world’s top universities and, with a strong focus on teaching excellence, has won more national teaching awards than any other Australian university. UQ’s 307,000 graduates are an engaged network of global alumni spanning more than 170 countries, and include more than 16,300 PhDs. More than 56,000 current students, including around 20,000 postgraduate students and approximately 21,000 international students from 137 countries, currently study across UQ’s 3 campuses in South East Queensland. UQ’s 6 faculties, 8 globally recognised research institutes and more than 100 research centres attract an interdisciplinary community of 1,500 scientists, social scientists and engineers who champion research excellence and continue UQ’s tradition of research leadership. This is reflected in UQ being the number one recipient of Australian Research Council Fellowships and Awards nationally across all scheme years (452 awards worth $339 million). UQ is also one of only 3 Australian members of the global Universitas 21; a founding member of the Group of Eight (Go8) universities; a member of Universities Australia; a member of the Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU); and one of only 3 Australian charter members of the global edX consortium for massive open online courses (MOOCs).
