Clubs and Societies
Easy to join and easy to start, choose your club today.
Clubs and societies are a core part of student life at USQ, bringing together vibrant and diverse communities and providing opportunities for current USQ students. Each of our clubs has a purpose and it is likely there is one focused on something you are passionate about. By joining even one of the many clubs available, you will not only have the opportunity to create great friendships, capture lasting memories and have a blast, but you can also build skills that will help further your career.
What do you do if you can't find a club you are passionate about? Start your own! With dedicated staff to guide you through the process, and an abundance of resources, it has never been easier to start a club or society. All you need is an idea.
