Build your pipeline of talent and promote your organisation as employers of choice to UQ students through an employability partnership

Our overall goal is to create meaningful connections that benefit both our talented students and industry so when they start with you, they are prepared from day one for a lifetime of success.

Why partner with the EAIT Student Employability team?

UQ is committed to developing exceptional graduates, those with experience with real industry knowledge and those pre­pared for the jobs of the future.

We support students to understand their career identity, direction, strengths and where their personal and professional values are positioned. We empower students to develop the mindset and capabilities needed in addition to their degree specific knowledge to navigate a successful life-long career.

We encourage students to engage in activities that contribute to their employability development from their first year of tertiary education, so by final year, they feel empowered to use and articulate their capabilities to perform effectively in the work place.

We support industry to build their pipeline of future talent and position themselves as employers of choice by offering opportunities to engage with our students through a variety of channels including work integrated learning, placements and events.
