Take A Tour
Use UQ Experts to find specialists, and expert opinion on a wide range of teaching and research fields. You can search by topics, surname or browse by organisational unit.
Topic Search
Use part of a search term to find a more comprehensive range of matches. A database search will be quite literal in its outcome so if you enter culture, you will also get records containing agriculture. If you enter Latin, you will get records containing words like relating.
Try searching using specific context-related words. For example, mammals will efficiently return mammals but koala or dog will focus a 'mammal' query more specifically.
Surname Search
Use part of a surname to find a more comprehensive range of matches. A database search will be quite literal in its outcome so if you enter chan, you will also get records containing Chandler, Chadwick, Chanson etc.
Try searching using a specific surname. For example, Frazer will efficiently return all experts with the surname Frazer.
