Why give to USQ?

For more than forty years, USQ has been a regional educational centre providing study programs through on-campus, off-campus and online study for local and international, undergraduate and graduate students alike.  

The generosity of alumni and friends enables USQ to pursue our educational mission of developing a knowledgeable and cultured society enriched through learning, scholarship, research, intellectual engagement and social equity.  

Your gift can directly support:

• undergraduate and postgraduate students
• individual faculties
• University areas of need

• building and campus development.

Regardless of the amount, every gift is important to us:

• gifts to USQ can be unrestricted; used where the need is greatest, or, restricted to a specific Faculty, person or project
• gifts can be made for immediate use, or to provide perpetual funding through an endowment
• they may be made in honour or in memory of someone
• the University welcomes outright gifts of cash, gifts in kind, real estate or other real property
• USQ appreciates bequests, trusts and planned gifts.

Your gift may be tax deductible, please refer to the Australian Taxation Office website for taxation information

Why do others give?

Maurice French - Alumni & Past Staff - 'If you have been a beneficiary, consider becoming a benefactor.'

'Coming from a remote rural community in Tasmania as the first member of a family to attend University and the beneficiary of a generous scholarship scheme, I appreciate the opportunities offered by tertiary education and feel bound to ensure the continuation of such an opportunity for future generations (especially in regional settings).'

'USQ has provided me with a rewarding career. Hence, I contributed to the Capital Campaign in order to provide an attractive, lively and accommodating campus experience for students and also to the Don & Barbara Stevens Scholarship fund to augment financial support for deserving students from the region.  It was my way of trying to give something back to the institution and community.'

 

 

 

Moree Plains Shire Council - Scholarship Donor - 'We all need to invest in the future skills development for Australia and our youth'.

'USQ was chosen for its recognised excellence in training engineers. In general we particularly want to support young people to become educated and our linking with regional schools and universities is very important to us. Together these partnerships work well for our communities and our organisations'.
