The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have changed the way that a number of our activities are managed, including clinical and industry-based placements and field trips.
To mitigate travel related risks, UQ requires all students to complete an online Travel Declaration (log-in required) prior to undertaking initial approved placements, work experience or field trips where the activity requires:
- you to travel more than 50km from your usual place of residence, and
- an overnight stay (minimum of one night).
The Declaration outlines your responsibilities while engaging in this travel and also provides information on the UQ processes in place to ensure your safety and support while engaging in your placement or field trip. By completing the declaration you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted these responsibilities.
For information on travel insurance cover please refer to the UQ Travel COVID-19 FAQs.
If you have any questions about your specific placement or field trip, please contact your Placement Coordinator or Field Trip Coordinator.
