Summer Semester is an optional third semester for UQ (The University of Queensland) students, or an opportunity to discover new knowledge and skills for non-UQ students. Each year, UQ has a number of courses available for enrollment in the intensive 8-week Summer Semester.
Anyone is qualified to enroll in the Summer Semester, but please note some courses are only available to current students who are enrolled in a UQ degree.
Past applicants have included:
●current UQ students
●students from other universities, including international students
●professionals
●adults from a range of backgrounds
●high-school students
If you are a current UQ student, you can access your student account to enroll. If you're enrolled at another Australian university and you want to undertake a course at UQ during Summer Semester for credit towards your program at your home institution, you should apply as a “cross-institutional student”. Before you apply, make sure you get approval from your home university and confirm you can get credit for your UQ studies.
