　　2、Is university ranking important or not? Does your institution care about the position of your institution in the world university ranking? What advice you would like to give to students about university ranking?

　　Official ranking is a certain way to reflect the position of institutions. However, our advice is that, students should not judge the universities and make a decision only according to the ranking. They should seek advices to find the most suitable universities for them,

　　官方排名固然是反映院校實力的重要佐證.但我的觀點是學生不能僅僅從排名去決定去哪所學校,而是應(yīng)該綜合考慮各種因素后選擇一所最適合自己的學校。

　　3、How many students are there in your institution at the moment? What about the percentage of international students? How many Chinese students? Does your institution set a quota for the number of Chinese student your institution recruit every year?

　　There are around 38,000 students, 8000 International Students and more than 1500 Chinese students. Chinese students share about 5% of all students.

　　4、What attributes you expect Chinese students to have when you recruit students, apart from meeting the academic entry requirement set by your institution?

　　For those subjects in Engineering and Science, we need students who can demonstrate capabilities in research. For subjects such in Arts and Social science, students are with good communication skills maybe more suitable. Basically, good academic background, internship experiences and good personality can make one stand out during interview.

　　對于工科類學生，我們傾向于有較強研究能力的學生。而對于文科類學生，我們則更希望學生有良好的溝通能力?？傮w來說，優(yōu)秀的學習成績、豐富的實習經(jīng)驗和上乘的個人性格可以使學生在面試當中鶴立雞群。

　　Biotechnology is one of the biggest strength at UQ. It is a collaborative, interdisciplinary program drawing on expertise from several university faculties, institutes, Queensland government and local industry. The key research institutions at UQ including Australian Institution for Bioengineering and Nanotechnolgy (AIBN), Institute for Molecular Bioscience (IMB) , Diamantina Institute for Cancer, Immunology and Metabolic Medicine, Queensland Brain Institute (QB ) demonstrate the research ability and global awareness of Queensland's (UQ) biotechnology industry.

　　生物科技是昆士蘭大學最強專業(yè)之一。這是一個通過數(shù)個二級學院、研究機構(gòu)、昆士蘭政府和當?shù)仄髽I(yè)合作而設(shè)立的跨學科合作項目。昆士蘭大學的主要研究機構(gòu)包括澳大利亞生物工程和納米技術(shù)研究所、分子生物研究所、迪亞曼蒂納癌癥研究所、免疫學和代謝醫(yī)學研究所、昆士蘭腦研究所，如此眾多的生物類研究所也說明昆士蘭大學在生物技術(shù)專業(yè)上的優(yōu)勢。

　　Communication and Journalism from Faculty of Social and Behavioral Science are good choices for those interested in relative areas. We value excellence and innovation in teaching and research and as such many of the Faculty members have received teaching and research awards at the Faculty, University and national level. The quality of our courses, programs and research is well regarded with many individual scholars in the Faculty who are world leaders in their fields.

　　社會與行為科學學院的通信和新聞專業(yè)對有志于從事該行業(yè)的學生來說絕對是一個不錯的選擇。我們學校一般通過教師的教學水平和研究能力來對教師進行評估，而該學院的許多教師獲得過學院級、院校級和國家級的教學及研究相關(guān)的獎項。我們學校的教學質(zhì)量及研究水平與該學院的許多學者息息相關(guān)，因為他們很多都是該領(lǐng)域的帶頭人。
