Your uni of choice
The progress of this University across its first decade has been unparalleled in the history of higher education in this country. It is already evident that we will continue to raise the benchmark as we forge into our second decade, to the benefit not only of our students and staff but also to the wider Sunshine Coast community.
I encourage you to be part of this University’s exciting future and to join the more than 5,000 students currently engaged in more than 100 programs, as we continue to strive for excellence across all faculties.
“Our quality programs are developed and delivered by more than 1,000 dedicated members of staff who are highly qualified academically and also bring a wealth of industry experience to the programs.”
I am also proud to acknowledge our recent commendation from the Australian Universities Quality Agency for our commitment to the Sunshine Coast, our innovative programs that enhance students’ experiences and, in particular, for our outstanding student support services. 
Many of you will be making challenging decisions regarding your career choice and I encourage you to adequately research the opportunities available before making this important decision.
This supplement aims to provide you with an overview of our new degrees and focuses on those programs that address significant shortages in the current job market.
I also recommend attending our Courses for Careers Day on Sunday 19 August, where our experienced team can assist you with further information and insight into potential career choices.
I wish you all the very best in choosing your area of study and look forward to welcoming you to our campus in the near future.
