Professor Angela Delves hands out the agent awards
Professor Delves spoke of becoming a more "engaged university" with business, local and cultural communities such as the mining industry and allied healthcare services, including the delivery of nuclear imaging technology.
More community engagement meant focusing on student needs and providing strong support and assistance programs so they could pursue their lifestyle choices, whether in engineering, business and commerce, health care or information technology services.
Professor Delves said that the goal was to make CQUniversity a "great regional university" and eventually a "great Australian university" within 10 years.
Following the Professor's address the much anticipated Agents Awards presentation commenced.
Three categories of Awards winners were announced:
- Category 1-recognising the top 10 performing Agents for 2009
