Queensland Tertiary Institution Open Days

Term 3 is when many tertiary institutions hold their open days. It is a great time for Year 12 students to explore and confirm their options for 2017. Students can check out the campus and find out about courses, course outcomes (employment prospects), scholarships and entry and upgrade pathways. Open days also provide an opportunity to speak to lecturers and current students.

Before the event, spend some time developing a checklist of what you want to find out. Some tips for attending university open days can be accessed on the My Health Career website at: https://www.myhealthcareer.com.au/university-open-days-your-survival-guide/. Following is a list of the upcoming open days in July and August.
