The campus also operates several commercial plant and animal production units in rural technologies to support teaching, research and hands-on training.

UQ also hosts a calendar of events and activities such as cultural festivals, theatre, dances, concerts, movie nights, debates, barbecues, markets, and museum and art exhibitions.
UQ qualifications are highly regarded by Australian and international employers. According to the 2022 Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching Graduate Outcomes Survey, 81.0 per cent of UQ bachelor's degree graduates available for full-time work had secured full-time employment within 4 months of completing programs, comparing favourably to the national average of 78.5 per cent.
UQ leads Queensland universities in employability rankings. The QS Graduate Employability Rankings placed UQ =63rd globally, meaning UQ graduates are better placed than any other graduates in Queensland to secure employment after graduating.
The UQ student experience provides a foundation for success far beyond graduation. We offer a balance of support, structure and flexibility while preparing you to compete in today’s rapidly evolving workplace. The UQ Employability Award program gives you the chance to build skills that future employers value, such as leadership, teamwork, communication, problem-solving and cultural awareness.
