Neurodivergent Hub Programs

 

UQ's Neurodivergent Hub hosts a full program of exciting and free workshops throughout the semester to help students get the most out of their studies.

We know that success at university isn't just about grades, it's also about making connections and learning more about uni life and yourself.

Join neurodivergent peers in student-led workshops made to discuss topics important to you.

Discuss what works (and doesn't work) from other students and find new strategies to help you make the most of your time at University.

You don't need a formal diagnosis to attend and there’s no pressure to attend every week.

 

Neurodivergent Check-in

Run in collaboration with the Disability Collective, come and meet other neurodivergent students, learn how to identify challenges earlier in the semester and develop strategies to progress through the semester.

This one hour session runs towards the end of week 2 of the semester. It provides an opportunity for neurodivergent students to connect and share their experiences.
