Strong curriculum and diverse faculty.

Tips: There are very few scholarships available for Indian students at UQ, but you will receive an email during the application process, so there is no separate application needed. I faced hardships with the transition from the Indian education system to the Australian education system. It's so much different. I suggest that you attend all the induction sessions at the beginning. They share a lot of information about how to plan and study, which is very helpful and important. Overall, I am satisfied with my studies at UQ.

Likes (Value for money): At UQ, you get what you pay for; the high tuition makes sense with the quality of teaching staff and education you receive on campus. The facilities on campus also make the school worthwhile. However, if you only want a degree, it's not a good choice because the teachers are very focused on interaction and student performance, which may not be good for everyone.

Dislikes (Part time work): Getting a part-time job is pretty convenient if you work off campus, but it may take some time. You'll have to apply for a lot of different jobs to get hired, and you may experience rejections. It's hard to find on-campus jobs because they want employees with experience. If you work off campus, your salary will be around 32 dollars an hour.

The faculty is amazing and supportive but meeting them requires an appointment.

Tips: The University has a lot of options from free supplies to volunteering opportunities. It's upto you how much you can benefit from. Obviously it's going to be rough initially but with the right people and support, it become easy. The key is to socialize and trying to accept the new reality. The faculty is amazing and supportive. Everyone is really helpful. One thing different from India is that things here are really systemic, so one might not feel more connected with the faculty. Meeting the faculty member requires taking an appointment in advance here. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Dislikes (Internships): The university provides proper guidance for internships, but it's a bit competitive. You need to perform well in one or the other criteria to get an internship. The issue is not getting paid internships because of a visa limitation on working hours, so finding the right internship becomes a bit difficult.

The faculty is talented, understanding and helps us to perform academically good.

Tips: There is a huge cultural shift and academic difference. Students must take the advice of professors and learning advisors, and put in an adequate amount of time for assignments and exams to get through otherwise it is very difficult to score good marks. Scholarships depend on the country you are applying from and which course you are applying to. Check out the scholarship details on the UQ scholarships page to get advice on scholarships for specific courses. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with the courses because it provides me the opportunity to learn about different things and avail practical opportunities to learn rather than learning by written memorization.

Highly experienced faculty and a vibrant student life.

Tips: I wish I knew how independent learning is key here. At UQ, my day includes lectures, study sessions, and time with friends on campus. The campus is huge and I love the vibrant student life, events like career fair and festivals, with amazing study spots and 200+ clubs to explore. There's great career support, industry connections and events, so networking helps a lot. Getting involved early makes UQ even better. There is a dedicated team that assists with resume building, job and internship applications. They also provide support by responding to companies when we use their email as a reference. There are internships available in my field. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, university and the country.

Overall good student experience and good quality of life.

Tips: For new students, UQ offers lots of interesting events to feel involved in; my advice will be to attend those and make connections. Of course, there will be cultural shifts in society which you can observe after coming here and adapting to those will be beneficial. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with my University life, and my sustainable energy course also enjoying by going to lots of travel places in Queensland.

Likes (Safety): UQ has its own safe zone app for the security of the UQ community. Brisbane is quite welcoming for new students and filled with lovely people but not to say, everyone should be aware of their own safety as in rare cases there can be some incidents, especially at night.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Australian Immigration policy changes every time and it's a little hard to get a permanent settlement as long as you are not on the priority list. Given a chance, I would like to spend some time in Australia not necessarily looking for the parmanent immigration.
