Maintaining our health and wellbeing can make it easier to balance study with personal, social and work commitments.
The Wellbeing Hub contains a range of multimodal information, training and resources to support you holistically, and provide a ‘one-stop-shop’ for you to access information on:
services available at UQ and in your local community that support your mental and physical health,
opportunities to connect with peers, and attend wellbeing-related events and training,
advice from current students and alumni about navigating university life, and
developing healthy habits and supporting yourself and others during times of stress.
