CQU is promoting the vibrancy of a new faculty structure and the likely popularity of its degrees through a series of breakfast meetings.

The meetings involving academics, community leaders and employers were scheduled from 7am in Rockhampton (July 20), Noosa (July 21), Emerald (August 3), Bundaberg (August 4), Mackay (August 9) and Gladstone (August 10).

The new Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Education (AHE) is keen to strengthen parternships and to promote the wider range of career pathways accessible via its much broader range of degrees.

The Faculty is now ready to produce the next generation of teachers, animators, designers, performers, historians, geographers, journalists, librarians, multimedia specialists and events promoters, with many more areas on offer.

AHE is also keen to promote its new 'supported FLEX' teaching which is extending the range of programs available at each campus.

Executive Dean of the new Faculty, Professor Richard Smith, said the breakfasts were designed as a catalyst.

"We are encouraging participants to spread the word that CQU and our Faculty are great options for a wide range of career and employment pathways for our local people," he said.
