The University of the Sunshine Coast has celebrated 50 students graduating from the Fraser Coast campus on Thursday, May 14, taking their total graduations to 40,000.
The event, held at the Brolga Theatre in Maryborough, celebrated the success of students graduating with degrees in science, social work, education, and nursing.
