Our approach to community engagement
At UQ, we see community engagement as a mutually beneficial partnership built on trust, knowledge exchange and shared goals. Our collaborations extend across Queensland and beyond, working together to support community aspirations and drive positive social change.
Connecting with regional Queensland
UQ visits local communities across Queensland through our Regional Roadshow program, delivering student pathway information, workforce capability development and research that helps regional communities thrive.
