Real world proof
“I love that I’m able to improve the delivery of healthcare services from behind the scenes. The QUT staff had really strong industry connections that helped me secure my first job as a student health information manager and then my full-time employment at Ipswich Hospital.”
Danica Jong
Bachelor of Health Information Management
“Psychology gives you an understanding of how people react in different situations, and why. One of my psychology lecturers works in domestic violence counselling and often speaks to us about how real people are affected by it. It’s these kinds of case studies that interest me because I know I’m going to encounter difficult situations like this when I’m practising as a barrister.”

Bachelor of Behavioural Science
(Psychology) / Bachelor of Laws (Honours)
“At QUT we often have guest lecturers from organisations such as The Cancer Council, UNICEF and the Australian Bureau of Statistics. I completed a placement in Vietnam, where we researched childhood immunisation and visited local clinics and hospitals. I’m now focused on a career where I can address the issues we face as a nation, including Indigenous health and the growing obesity epidemic.”
