What is an Alumni Chapter?
| |
An alumni chapter is a group of former students of the University who share a common interest and have decided to formalise their interactions with each other and USQ. Chapters may be organised as:
|
|
Hello from the Alumni Chapters
|
- regional groups (country, city, region or campus)
- educational areas (faculty or discipline area)
- residential college
- professional or industry area
- special interest groups.
|
| |
The focus of an individual chapter can vary, but may include: |
|
Theatre Alumni Chapter launch
|
- networking and building social, professional and business relations with other USQ Alumni
- keeping in contact with friends from the university
- creating a support network in regional or isolated areas
- having regular social gatherings
- providing support to current USQ students in the area
- raising funds for a scholarship nominated by the chapter
- assisting USQ in achieving its objectives.

Alumni chapters are organised and operated in a formal way, with a committee selected from among its members. There are also Alumni groups, which are more informal than chapters.
USQ currently has a variety of established Alumni Chapter and several proposed chapter. Find out if where your nearest chapter is. If you would like to join an existing chapter, please contact the relevant chapter directly.
If there is not already a chapter in your region or in your area of interest, you may consider starting one. Please refer to the USQ Alumni Network Chapter Handbook (*PDF 488KB) for details about establishing a chapter. If you have any queries or require a New Chapter Application form, please contact the Alumni Relations Office.
