ABOUT
QUT Debating Society aims to develop public speaking skills, critical thinking and general confidence in a fun and friendly environment. Each year the society represents QUT in local, national and and international competitions where some of our members get the exciting opportunity to compete against some of the best teams in the world!
We hold debates every Thursday night at Gardens Point at 7pm. At the beginning of each semester we also provide up to an hour of training starting at 6pm to help debaters of all levels improve their skills. To find out more about the location and timing of these events head over to our Facebook page as we always post event details on there.
QUTDS is a great place to meet new friends as well as to learn new skills. We debate a wide range of topics and everyone is welcome from beginners to the most experienced debaters! We also hold a number of socials such as picnics, dinners and drinks to encourage members to make new friends, and stay in touch with their debating friends in a more relaxed environment.
