World-class sailor Luke stays afloat with help from bursary
Published on 12 March, 2013
Luke Duncan is grateful for a $1000 Engineering Co-op Relocation Bursary to help him relocate from Cairns to Rockhampton, to take up his foundation year studies with CQUniversity.
Luke says his decision to pursue Civil Engineering consolidated after seeing the stresses on bridges during the recent floods in Queensland.

He's well aware that CQUniversity's Co-op Engineering program includes two periods of paid employment in relevant industries and that graduates have a near 100% employment rate.
Luke managed a seventh place in the recent world titles for sailing (NACRA F18 class) and is looking forward to competing in at least two more regattas off Cairns this year.
