CQUniversity learning management (early childhood) students have an integral role in running the annual Romp in the Park event at Rockhampton Botanic Gardens.

This year's event will be held from 9am-1pm on Friday May 18 to celebrate early childhood with young children, their families and community.

CQUniversity construction management student Toby Lister is getting his ducks in a row so he can be on Australia's Olympic rowing team for the London Games in August.

Thanks to CQUni's membership of the Elite Athlete Friendly University Network, he's been able to defer his studies without penalty, and he's reduced his work hours to enable him to train several times each day for six days a week.

Around 40 project management professionals from a number of different industries met at CQUniversity recently to show their interest in forming a Mackay chapter of the Project Management Institute of Queensland (PMIQ).

Published on 18 April, 2012

Paramedic Science is people-focused so it was no surprise students involved in a residential school at CQUniversity Rockhampton this week got very 'hands-on' with their studies.

The 48 students involved came from Cairns down to the border and everywhere in between, as well as from Adelaide and New South Wales.

CQUniversity Australia and BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) have affirmed their joint commitment to ‘closing the gap' in Indigenous education and opportunity, with the announcement of a new senior leadership role at CQUniversity, as well as 15 new scholarships for students from all backgrounds, representing a $1.8 million commitment from BMA.

Two CQUniversity students have recently received $5000 bursaries from Mackay Regional Council to make their University journey a little brighter.    

Phoebe Vannoort who is studying a Bachelor of Accounting and a Bachelor of Business, and Sam Davis who is studying a Bachelor of Multimedia Studies, were among four students to receive the bursaries as part of the inaugural Academic Bursary program.

The first rule of book club is that everybody can talk about book club!

Organisers of the book club based at CQUniversity Library are keen to ensure all community members feel welcome to attend.

The next book for discussion is  Fence around the Cuckoo by Ruth Park.

CQUniversity is proud to be a supporter of an art exhibition entitled Dichotomy of Place, opening soon at Gallery 6, Walter Reid Cultural Centre in Rockhampton.

Everyone is welcome to the exhibition opening from 6.

Rockhampton region schools are encouraged to enter a Schools Innovation Challenge offering great prizes.

The challenge has been arranged by CQUniversity in partnership with the CQ Innovative Regions centre and the Museum of Central Queensland Inc.

A small but enthusiastic group of CQUniversity graduates gathered in Bangkok recently for an alumni function at the Novotel Hotel.

The special guest was Dr Theerarat Samrejvanich, a former CQUniversity doctoral student who is a member of Thailand's parliament.
