Bec Dwan
Welcome and Induction Coordinator
In my role, it’s my aim to inspire new and returning students to feel comfortable at UQ, to be prepared for their studies and to actively engage and participate in campus life. I'm originally from a small country town on the Darling Downs and in my free time I love playing and watching sport and spending time with family and friends.

Prior to this role, I was at UQ Sport for nearly 10 years as well as a research scientist at AIBN at UQ. This experience has helped me contribute to the student experience on campus by engaging with students and creating a sense of belonging and connection. Fun fact, I have around 137 plants and counting!

Having lived in six countries and worked in two, I'm fascinated by culture and meaningful connections. These interests facilitated my studies in marketing and psychology and have enabled me to build my career around marketing and communications and content creation. Being a UQ Alumni, I'm passionate about engaging with our students and ensuring UQ holds a special place in their hearts long after moving onto their next chapters.

Combining nearly 5 years in higher education coordinating student volunteers, programs and events, and many more in my own tertiary studies, I firmly believe that students are the greatest asset of any university. I’m excited to be in a position to promote partnership with UQ students through maximising and supporting the student voice in ways that will make a positive impact on their university experience.
