TSA HISTORY

Our history traces back over 12 years ago!! Established in 1990, We were actually the first Taiwanese Student Club in Brisbane. It all began with a few students who wanted to do something for the benefits of others and in return they would have a club of people who did other things away from text books and studies, a group of people from different backgrounds but shared similar interests. With the help of the university student guild, we were able to make history!

TSA has been a strictly non-profit student organisation that aims to assist Taiwanese students in every aspect of their university lives; and to help students become productive members of the Australian multicultural society.  TSA also strives to endorse cultural exchange and friendship within the QUT community and with people from all different backgrounds.  This is achieved by organising many functions and activities throughout the year, some in conjunction with other clubs and societies.  TSA also acts as a large family group to deal with any difficulties and questions Taiwanese students may encounter in their time at QUT.

The system is that we make fun and have fun together!! It has become a tradition that has been passed down through the years. Each year new members join and old members graduate, but we still live on as we have support and dedication from members and committees. Hope that TSA becomes better as we grow stronger in the years to come! ^_^

What is QUT TSA?

QUT TSA is a non-profit students organisation dedicated to helping Taiwanese students cope with various aspects of university life.
