Significant infrastructure investment across ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ of Queensland (ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅) in recent years is enabling ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ to offer more places in 2013 β but prospective students will have to be quick to seize them, with Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) preferences closing Friday 1 February.
As at 29 January, 8561 people had accepted offers to study at ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅, however there were still opportunities in most programs including law, engineering, education and science.
Vice-Chancellor Professor Peter HΓΈj said ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ offered an outstanding student lifestyle that extended well beyond the learning environment.
βCampus sporting facilities, clubs and societies, as well as opportunities to volunteer, study abroad and join leading research projects all enhance our student experience,β Professor HΓΈj said.
βΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ is consistently ranked within the worldβs top 100 universities and we have won more teaching awards than any other Australian university. We offer state-of-the-art teaching facilities in magnificent surroundings.β
Further, ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ graduates are in demand. Graduate Careers Australiaβs most recent survey has found the full time employment rate among ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅βs domestic bachelor graduates under the age of 25 was 78.3 per cent compared to 74.1 per cent nationally.
A number of ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ building projects have just been completed. The recently opened Learning Innovation Building co-locates teaching, learning and innovation-based centres, while the $135 million Advanced Engineering Building and 6-star green design Global Change Institute are both due to open in 2013.
Prospective students will have to apply to QTAC by 1 February if they are to secure a place for the first semester.
