Researcher bound for Rapid City, shows template for deepening of overseas partnerships 

CQUniversity researcher Professor David Hamilton has shown it's possible to develop academic links and international links at the same time, as he plans for a trip to Rapid City in South Dakota in late September and early October.

The Melbourne-based researcher is preparing a presentation on The Measuring of Factors Contributing to International Student Performance at University - New Approaches and New Insights to Inform Quality Teaching and Learning.

This presentation has been accepted for the 18th annual South Dakota International Business Conference, hosted by Northern State University.

It so happens that Northern State is a student exchange partner with CQUniversity and our International Office is keen on the opportunity to 'deepen' exchange relationships through academic and research interactions.

Janelle Allen in the International Office is the Manager, International Engagement.  She encourages other academics heading to overseas conferences to check if they can use their visit to enhance an existing exchange relationship.
