Hi, I'm Lara from The University of Queensland.
Researching study areas and programs is an important first step in starting your University
journey.
Here, at The University of Queensland, we offer a diverse range of programs across a
range of areas of study.
For students interested in studying two programs at the same time, we offer a range of dual
programs, these allow students to combine the study of two interest areas and graduate
with two qualifications.
Studying a dual program is a great way to acquire additional knowledge and skills, expand
your career options and gain a competitive edge with employers.
UQ also offers Concurrent Diplomas in music performance, a language or global issues,
these are equivalent to one extra year of study for interested students.
Students can apply for a concurrent diploma once they are enrolled in a UQ program.
The program you choose to study will determine which of our four campuses you would be based
at.
