Student experience

The University of Southern Queensland is a young dynamic university dedicated to providing quality programs and degrees, and ensuring our graduates are given the best possible opportunities to succeed.

USQ is proud of our unique culture. We stand-out from the crowd because while we are committed to seeing our students achieve academically we are also concerned with their personal journey toward their goals. While we are a regional university our perspective is global. Our degrees are relevant and our lecturers are leaders in their fields.

Small class sizes

USQ's smaller class sizes mean students receive individual attention and a high level of academic support from teachers committed in the holist development of each student.

Our support

To ensure our students reach their goals we have developed a variety of support avenues that provide them with the necessary tools to succeed. This year USQ will launch a new initiative which will provide every student with a personal support person. Known as the Student Relationship Officers, these people will mentor students through their time at USQ, providing them with additional opportunities to reach their full potential.

Diverse student population

USQ is proud of our diverse student population. Each year we have around 7000 international students study with us from a wide variety of countries globally. Students from all backgrounds come together to create USQ's unique multicultural climate.

Leading distance education provider

We have developed an international reputation as a leading distance education provider. Over the years USQ has fine-tuned the delivery of our programs so that students who choose to study externally or online receive the same material and support as those who study on campus. We recognise that most people lead busy lives so we are committed to ensuring students get the most from their journey with us by remaining flexible and understanding.
