UQ’s Engineering, Design and Computing Careers Evening is built around a dynamic careers expo, giving students in Years 9–12 the chance to connect directly with industry professionals from fields such as engineering, design, architecture, urban planning, and computing. You’ll meet industry guests, speak with UQ alumni about their journeys from study to industry, and gain real insight into what future career pathways can look like. You can explore the expo at your own pace and discover how UQ equips students for careers in these rapidly evolving fields.
In addition to the expo, you can drop into a range of 30-minute sessions and presentations that explore these fields of study within an industry context. You can freely join any session as it suits you, with the flexibility to move in and out of presentations throughout the night.
