The University of Southern Queensland Alumni Awards formally recognise outstanding alumni for their professional and personal achievements. Award categories range from professional excellence and leadership, to significant, long-term social impact, to young alumni who are distinguishing themselves in their career and within their community.
We are proud of all of our alumni, particularly our Alumni Award Recipients who inspire fellow alumni, current UniSQ students and the community.
If you know of a University of Southern Queensland alumnus who is doing amazing things in their career, industry and community, make sure you nominate them for the Alumni Awards, and help us keep this tradition alive!
2025 Award categories
- Young Alumnus of the Year
- Alumni Award for Leadership & Professional Excellence

The award recipient who demonstrates the highest overall achievements in one of the above categories will also be awarded Alumnus of the Year.
