Student forum staged at MIC 

Students at the CQU Melbourne International Campus were given the opportunity to meet members of the Student Association, Campus Student Executive (CSE), and the Student Association Board Director at this month’s student forum.

PhotoID:299 The forum was organised to provide students with the opportunity to comment on various concerns or issues they may have. These concerns are then taken to campus management via the monthly CSE/campus management meeting.

At the forum many issues were discussed in relation to results, review of grades, graduation, marking of assignments and exams. Students showed a keen interest in the topics discussed and provided valued input into many of the more pertinent issues raised. The student forum is a strategy developed to ensure CQU’s motto “Where Students Come First” is maintained throughout every facet of student life at the Melbourne International Campus.
