Be part of one of UQ’s proudest traditions, by coming to watch the Great Court Race on Wednesday 15 May from 12:30pm. First held in 1985, to celebrate UQ’s 75th anniversary, the event has become an iconic annual tradition at UQ.
Nominations are now open for the 2024 UQ Awards for Excellence. These annual awards are a great opportunity to recognise the hard work and dedication of your colleagues and give them a chance to take home a monetary prize. There are 7 award categories: community; innovation; service; reconciliation; diversity and inclusion; mental and physical health, safety and wellness; and leadership. Nominations are open until midnight on Friday 14 June.
Expressions of interest (EOIs) are now open to present during Teaching and Learning Week (Monday 28 October – Friday 1 November). The theme for this year is Future Ready. UQ staff are invited to share their knowledge and experiences in line with these 3 sub-themes: UQ’s future student cohorts, preparing students for the future, and shaping UQ’s teaching and learning future. EOIs will close at 9am on Monday 17 June.
As part of UQ’s IT security improvements, ITS has introduced Windows Hello for Business (WHFB). Staff now have the option to enable WHFB's advanced authentication technology to log into their Windows devices. WHFB improves useability, by allowing you to sign into your device using a PIN or biometric data (such as facial or fingerprint recognition) instead of a traditional password.
