CQU Gold Coast International a 24/7 operation with improved facilities 

Published on 04 March, 2004 

Students at CQU's Gold Coast International Campus on Marine Parade are making the most of 24-hour, seven-days-a-week access to information technology and electronic library resources and are enjoying improved facilities.

PhotoID:1323 About 420 undergraduate and postgraduate students are expected to start classes next week. About 10 per cent are Australians and the remainder are international students, but all are studying on a fee-paying basis.

The Gold Coast International Campus, which started operating in 2001, is tailored for full-fee paying students and features personal attention, small tutorials and on-going support for communications and study skills. Campus Director Peter Mendham said upgraded dining, data projection and air-conditioning facilities were among the recent improvements.

He said the campus hoped to have more than 500 students enrolled by the end of the year.

"We are becoming more proactive with our recruitment into Taiwan, China, Korea and Europe this year," he said.

Mr Mendham said the campus was also an active board member of the Study Gold Coast organisation.
