Study Abroad/Exchange

Welcome to the University of Queensland

Orientation Week is your chance to meet your fellow students and familiarise yourself with the services and opportunities available to you while you are at UQ.

You must attend the compulsory sessions listed below.
If you are still choosing your courses or need help working out your timetable, come along to the Enrolment and Timetable session and/or the Academic Advising Session on Tuesday afternoon.
There are many events run during Orientation Week and you are welcome to attend any events that you think would be helpful. Click on "Find Events" above to browse the possibilities.
We will also make some recommendations at the Study Abroad & Exchange orientation session on Tuesday.
