Explore UC
It all starts with you
Explore UC is a hands-on, student-simulation opportunity for your Year 10 to 12 students to get a taste of university life.
Students will get to build their own itinerary to sample what UC has to offer, including faculty workshops, campus activities, and more. It’s a great way to tour the campus and live the UC student life before deciding on where students wish to study. Career Advisors and teachers also get to enrich their classroom excursions through this immersive, personalised day of learning that makes an impact!
Student workshop registrations for Explore UC 2024 aren’t quite ready yet, but whilst we are organising this, please feel free to check out what took place in 2023’s Explore UC and some of the exciting workshops that took place
