Our community

The Distinguished Alumni Awards is a biennial event that has provided an opportunity to recognise and celebrate the exceptional contributions that some of our incredible alumni make to their communities. The University of Canberra Distinguished Alumni honour roll dates back to 2001 and we are constantly blown away by the amazing alumni who come to the surface. 

This year, the DAA's have been reimagined as UC’s Night of Nights, a community-wide celebration of the University, its alumni, outstanding research, and academic achievement. 

The University of Canberra alumni community is made up of more than 95,000 graduates across more than 130 countries worldwide, and many of them have gone on to do amazing things as leaders, innovators, influencers, creators, and high achievers in their fields. Read some of their stories and see how a degree from the University of Canberra can truly be transformational.
