Welcome to The Women’s College within The University of Queensland, where we provide more than just a place to stay for young women embarking on their tertiary studies in Brisbane. As the Head of College & CEO, I am honoured to lead a dedicated team that focuses on creating a vibrant and supportive living and learning community.
At Women’s College, we prioritise not only your academic journey but also your personal and professional growth. Our commitment encompasses mentoring, career guidance, and holistic support for your wellbeing. We believe in fostering an environment where women support women, celebrating the rich diversity and unique qualities of the 300 residents and non-resident associates who call the College ‘home.’
Our approach centres on equity, empowering students to embrace a multitude of opportunities for personal growth. The College is more than just a residence. It is a place where lasting connections, friendships, and networks are formed, creating memories that will accompany you throughout your lifetime.
As you transition from school to university and into your chosen career, you will benefit from the unwavering encouragement and inspiration provided by our dedicated staff, fellow Woozas, alumnae, and an impressive network of accomplished women. The Women’s College experience goes beyond academics – it is an opportunity to become part of a community that propels you towards success.
For 110 years, we have been dedicated to fostering future leaders. Today, our Student Leadership Team exemplifies inclusivity, equity, encouragement, and support, ensuring that no Wooza is left behind. They balance cherished College traditions with modern living, creating a dynamic community that embraces student interests and pursuits.
I invite you to explore our Prospectus and WOOZA – a mini-magazine designed for future residents – and listen to a conversation with two of our Residents – to see how Women’s College has changed their lives while studying at University.
The Women’s College is not just a residence. It is a community. I am privileged to support our young women on their journey through university studies and the transition to adulthood.
Welcome to a special community where your journey is our priority.
Flo Kearney
Head of College & CEO
