How to Find and Apply for a Degree at UniSQ

You can find a degree at UniSQ by browsing its study areas (Arts and Communication, Business, Education and Teaching, Engineering and Surveying, Health, Information Technology, Law, Sciences and Agriculture, plus new degrees), then apply online if you already know what you want to study, or enquire first if you need advice. If you are unsure, UniSQ offers free career advice through Career Advisors, Degree Advisors by phone or live chat, and pathway programs for entry into a dream degree.

Step 1: Browse by study area

Start with the Find a degree section on the UniSQ homepage. The listed study areas are:

• Arts and Communication
• Aviation
• Business
• Education and Teaching
• Engineering and Surveying
• Health
• Information Technology
• Law
• Sciences and Agriculture
• New degrees

The site also lists Other study options: Pathways, Double degrees, and Short courses. Use these if you are not ready for a full degree or want to combine fields.

Step 2: Choose how you want to study

UniSQ lists five locations, and the right choice affects both your application and your daily routine:

If flexibility matters most, the Online option is the one the site frames around studying "your way, wherever you are." If you want a campus experience near Brisbane, Springfield and Ipswich are both described as roughly 30 minutes away.

Step 3: Apply or enquire

Once you know what you want to study, the homepage gives two direct actions: Apply and Enquire.

• Apply — use this when you have already identified your degree.
• Enquire — use this when you have questions before committing.

If you are still deciding, the site points you to Explore careers and to free career advice with Career Advisors, which you can book.

Step 4: Get advice before or during your application

UniSQ provides several contact routes. The site lists these hours (AEST):

Use Degree Advisors or live chat if you are choosing a program; use iconnect if you are already a student and need support.

Step 5: Consider a pathway if you don't meet direct entry

The homepage highlights pathway programs as the route to "get into your dream degree." If your grades or background don't match direct entry, browse the Pathways option under Other study options before applying, and confirm the details with a Degree Advisor.

What to check before you apply

• Postgraduate study is presented as a way to get promoted or change industries — relevant if you are returning to study rather than starting out.
• Double degrees and short courses are listed as alternatives if a single degree doesn't fit your goals.
• Reputation signals the site cites: top 2% of universities worldwide, five out of five stars for postgraduate starting salary, and one of six lead Australian Trailblazer universities in space manufacturing research. These are the university's own claims; weigh them alongside course-specific details.

Common sticking points

• Applying before choosing a location. Campus and online options differ in experience, so decide this early.
• Missing the advice window. Phone and chat lines close at 5:00 pm AEST on weekdays and are closed on public holidays.
• Skipping the enquiry step. If your entry path is unclear, a quick enquiry or Career Advisor booking can save a wasted application.

For current student services, remember iconnect closes at 4:00 pm, an hour earlier than Degree Advisors.
