Careers that shape the world

The day starts at 7.45am at the UQ Centre on Union Road:

• 7.45am: sign-in opens
• 8.45am: official welcome.

After the welcome, our student ambassadors will take students to and from their sessions. Teachers are welcome to go to the lounge in the UQ Centre.

The day will finish at 3pm.

Teachers and students will be provided with morning tea and a pizza lunch in the UQ Centre Exhibition Hall. Alternatively, you can purchase food from outlets on campus.

Vegetarian and gluten-free options will be available. If you have any other dietary requirements, please bring your own lunch.

We are committed to reducing single-use plastics. Please bring your own water bottle and make use of water refill stations around campus.

We encourage everyone to bring a:

• notepad
• pen
• water bottle
• sunscreen and
• an umbrella, just in case.

Students should wear school uniform and enclosed shoes, for safety purposes. This is particularly important for students who have registered for science, engineering or architecture sessions

If you're coming to campus via public transport, we recommend catching a bus to the UQ Lakes bus stop, which is closest to the UQ Centre.

If you're getting a lift, we recommend getting dropped off and collected at the P10 car park which is just around the corner from the UQ Centre.

If you’re driving to UQ, please read about parking locations and payment information before you leave home.

Information about school bus parking is available under 'Information for teachers'.

All teachers are invited to use our teachers’ lounge in the UQ Centre. The lounge has wifi and seating, if you want to get some work done. If you register before the event, we'll also give you a coffee voucher to use on the day.

Seminar sessions are only available to students, due to limited capacity. You’re welcome to enjoy the teachers' lounge in the UQ Centre while students are at their sessions.

Students will be supervised all day – you are not required to attend sessions with them. While you wait, you are welcome to attend and use the teachers’ lounge, libraries or cafes on campus.

You should wear your school uniform and enclosed shoes, for safety purposes. This is particularly important if you’ve registered for science, engineering or architecture sessions.

No, sorry. Due to limited capacity, seminars are only available to students.
