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!

Schedule

After successful school registration, the registering staff member will receive a timetable creation link to share with attending students when workshop registrations become available.

Students will then need to complete their schedule, choosing from a variety of workshops into four timeslots. We will provide confirmed timetables directly to students but encourage you to compile student timetables for your own records.

Registrations will open early May.

Transport

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.

Lunch

UC can provide lunch for students attending through our Global Kitchen, who provide a variety of delicious meals catering to all dietary restrictions. If you would like vouchers for your students attending Explore UC, please indicate so in your RSVP form.

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 recommend that students bring a water bottle, and any small snacks they wish to eat throughout the day.
