The University of Queensland is announcing plans to welcome international students back to its campus in 2022, in a much needed boost to the struggling academic sector.

The multi-phased plan will focus on helping currently enrolled students return to complete on-site practical examinations and mandatory placement hours, before shifting to accommodate newer enrollments. 

UQ’s Vice Chancellor Professor Deborah Terry says international students who are studying online have shown tremendous resilience and adaptability during the pandemic, and the university is looking forward to their return.
