UQ Wildlife Association (UQWA)

The University of Queensland Wildlife Association (UQWA) aims to connect likeminded students in wildlife-based studies with the support and networking needed to thrive while studying and post-graduation. UQWA strives to represent the wildlife science student body as a whole and ensure that they are accurately and strong represented within the Gatton Campus community. However, the Wildlife Association isn’t just for students studying the Bachelor of Wildlife! Anyone with a passion for conservation and wildlife… native or exotic are welcome to join!

This year we hope to provide enriching opportunities and amazing social events, which you definitely won’t want to miss!

The University of Queensland Wildlife Association (UQWA) aims to provide members with industry opportunities and experiences to develop their interests with animals. We aim to be a vector for communication and hope to provide members with resources to network and form relationships with those with similar interests.

In the remainder of 2021, we plan to have several events – camping trips, career talks, animal presentations, volunteering opportunities, a ball and MORE. Members will have access to discounts to our events and also our merchandise.
