Did you attend any events at UQ in the lead up to choosing to come here? If so please tell us what.

I’ve been on the UQ campus multiple times as my brother used to host his club events prior to his graduation.

Why did you choose to study at UQ?

UQ has the course I want to study and I look up to many people in my life who have graduated from UQ.

What are your favourite facilities and resources available to you at UQ?

The student help desk has been incredibly useful for times when I need support on my courses, information on who to contact for specific inquiries and for life saving temporary id cards right before exams.

Have you been able to have practical experiences within your degree (e.g. work experience, industry projects etc.)? If so, please provide some highlights.

Group projects such as ENGG1001 and CHEE2001 have allowed me to interact with more of my cohort and get to know their individual goals in engineering.

What’s been your favourite course so far and why?

CHEE2003 - It builds on the interesting concepts learnt in ENGG1500 and is structured in a digestible way where individual leaning, group learning and problem solving is all included.

Are you a member of any student societies / participate in extra curricular activities? Tell us a bit about it. 

I am the president of the UQ physics club. I initially joined in my first year and resonated with many of the members and wanted to get more involved, now I run weekly events where pizza is always involved!
