Testimonials.

“The opportunity to collaborate with Dream Big Australia was made very easy after Jessica shared the vision for student centred collaboration and her commitment to a STEAM future that valued the Arts for using its inquiry and problem-based learning methods in the creative process.

The University of Queensland is excited to have had this opportunity to collaborate with Dream Big Australia. We look forward to exploring how we can continue engaging tomorrow’s STEAM professionals whilst we assist our exceptional UQ students to build their employability through the innovative connection with Dream Big Australia.”
