How to Get Involved and everything you need to know about T1 events
The SRC and GUPSA have refreshed the events program to bring you even more opportunities and experiences, both on and off campus.
This year, our events are designed to offer something for everyone with options that fit different schedules, campuses, and accessibility needs. From relaxed trips exploring local sights to lively social events, there are plenty of ways to meet new people and connect with your student community in a way that feels comfortable for you.
If you have any questions, need specific support, or want more details before attending, please get in touch! We’re happy to help and would love to chat with you.
Our events are open to undergraduate and postgraduate students at the Logan, Brisbane, and Digital campuses. Gold Coast students can access events through their student association, The Student Guild.
