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!

After successful school registration, the registering staff member will receive an email with confirmation details, including next steps for securing transport subsidisation.
A link will be provided to the registering staff member when workshop registrations are available. Students will then need to complete their schedule, choosing from a variety of workshops in four timeslots. We will provide confirmed timetables directly to students when they arrive on your selected day, and a copy will be emailed to the students registering email.
Registrations will open mid-April.
UC are looking to subsidise the cost of bus transportation to assist with your attendance at Explore UC. Please indicate in your expression of interest if this would support your schools attendance.
The UC team will be in contact to determine details and organise transport assistance.
UC will be providing lunch to all students & staff attending Explore UC and will cater to any dietary requirements where possible.
Students are welcome to bring packed lunches on the day. There will also be other businesses on campus in which students are welcome to purchase their own lunch from if they wish.
We highly recommend that students bring a water bottle.
