The University of Queensland (UQ) is one of Australia’s leading teaching and research institutions internationally-renowned for its highly-awarded teaching staff, world-acclaimed researchers and superior campus facilities and services.
UQ’s longstanding reputation for quality is reinforced by affiliations with prestigious national and international groups, including the Australian Group of Eight (Go8) and Universities 21.
UQ also consistently performs well in respected national and international rankings of university academic and research performance. In 2006, the University ranked 45th in the world in a ranking compiled in by the prestigious Times Higher Education Supplement. At a national level, UQ was independently ranked as one of Australia’s best universities in the 2007 edition of The Good Universities Guide, where UQ was awarded the maximum five-star rating for six key performance indicators, including student demand, positive graduate outcomes, staff qualifications and research intensity.
The University has more than 2,200 academic staff dedicated to teaching and research. Many are recognised internationally as leaders in their fields. Their ability and dedication is proven by the fact that UQ academics have won more Australian Awards for University Teaching than any other university.
UQ is also one of the leading research universities in Australia and leads industry collaboration and research funding. UQ researchers constantly push the boundaries of research to achieve world-acclaimed research breakthroughs including a vaccine for cervical cancer, pioneered by UQ researcher and 2006 Australian of the Year, Professor Ian Frazer. UQ’s extensive research portfolio includes over 130 research centres as well as many teaching and research sites throughout Queensland.
Today, more than 37,500 students, including 6,607 international students from approximately 120 countries, study across three superb south-east Queensland campuses at St Lucia, Ipswich and Gatton. UQ St Lucia - the university’s largest campus - is situated in Brisbane, a dynamic capital city known for its excellent climate, safe environment and affordable quality of life.
