The University of Queensland - ADF Higher Education Advanced Standing Scheme
The University of Queensland (UQ) is one of Australia’s premier teaching and research institutions, internationally-renowned for its highly-awarded teaching staff, world-acclaimed researchers and superior campus facilities and services.
UQ’s longstanding reputation for quality is reinforced by affiliations with prestigious national and international groups, including the Australian Group of Eight (Go8) and Universitas 21. Internationally, regionally and domestically UQ consistently ranks among the best universities in independent rankings. UQ welcomes students from around the world to a friendly community of dedicated students and leading academics at three superb campuses.
The University of Queensland recognises that Australian Defence Force personnel have reached particular ranks through undertaking specific education and training, have gained qualifications and have related experience. UQ welcomes Defence Force personnel to its programs in partnership with the Australian Defence Force Higher Education Advanced Standing Scheme.
The University of Queensland will consider requests for entry into several postgraduate programs on the basis of ADF education and training on a case–by–case basis. Requests from holders of ADF awards for advanced standing into postgraduate programs will also be considered on a case–by–case basis.
Opportunities for ADF personnel to gain credit in several UQ postgraduate programs have been identified. For further information on these programs and the opportunities for credit, please visit the University of Queensland website.
