Alumni Events

The Faculty hosts a number of local, national, and international events across the year for alumni and friends to connect socially and professionally.

We also support Class Reunions – a great opportunity to reconnect with friends and classmates, reminisce about your days at university, and hear about what's happening at UQ. For upcoming reunions - please check the Faculty's Alumni Events Calendar below or the University's Alumni Reunions page.

For more information, or advice, please contact the Alumni & Community Engagement team.
