As a new team associated with CQUniversity, The Catwalk Company is already staging preventative health promotional events thanks to the enthusiasm of its young members..

Weekly workshops aimed at enrolled and registered nurses and carers working in the aged care sector will begin this month.

The workshops aim to deliver some of the skills gap faced by the aged care industry and are a result of consultation with industry, the Queensland Centre for Professional Development (QCPD) at CQUniversity and the Centre for Professional Health Education.

Graduate Mike Dalton has not only completed the 2012 Simpson Desert Mountain Bike Challenge to raise funds for The Royal Flying Doctor Service. He also managed to finish fourth overall.

CQUniversity staff, students and alumni are among the cast and crew gearing up for Rockhampton Musical Union's production of Hairspray at the Pilbeam Theatre (October 25-28).

Professional Communication student Laura Hamlyn is sharing the lead role of 'Tracy Turnblad', while Civil Engineering student Matthew Dennis is 'Corny Collins' and Paramedic Science student Justin Stewart is 'Seaweed'.

CQUniversity is not about to shoot first and ask questions later. It is embedding a research agenda right at the start of its journey as a 'dual-sector' institution.

University performance evaluation systems are a key source of evidence that will be crucial for institutions dealing with the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA)..

CQUniversity's Rockhampton Campus Library will provide a safe home for medals won by world famous French botanist Anthelme Thozet*, who is already celebrated in local landmarks.

These important local artefacts have been donated by Mace Bean so they can be displayed and enjoyed more broadly by the community, under the University's custodianship.

Changes in water quality, including increased sedimentation and pesticide levels, may be hindering the capacity of some coral communities on island fringing reefs in Keppel Bay near Rockhampton to regenerate by recruitment and regrowth after disturbances.

That's according to CQUniversity Post Doctoral Researcher Dr Alison Jones who will deliver a presentation from 1pm-2pm on Friday, October 12, as part of the Institute for Resource Industries and Sustainability (IRIS) series.

CQUniversity Mackay students will soon benefit from a new smartphone app which aims to connect more than 17,000 students from across Mackay with local retailers by offering discounts and rewards.

Thanks to a partnership between BHP Billiton Mitsui Coal (BMC) and Study Mackay, the new technology is part of the Student Discount Project designed to relieve cost of living pressures.
