Late run of enquiries for study at CQU Mackay 

The Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre is still accepting applications for Central Queensland University (CQU) Domestic Undergraduate programs up until February 23 for internal programs.

PhotoID:3841 CQU Mackay is experiencing a late run of enquiries from people interested in undertaking university study across all areas and encourages those interested in University study to call the campus for advice.

Aaron Granville has just returned home to Australia and is thinking about studying at CQU this year.

“I worked as a teacher’s assistant in London and as a camp counsellor in America and I’d like to continue to travel and work in a job where I can make a difference. By studying education, I will be able to do that,” said Aaron.

Dr Cecily Knight, like many other lecturers at CQU Mackay, has been talking with students interested in getting started this year in a Bachelor program.

“We’ve spoken recently with a number of prospective students attracted to the innovative industry-supported Bachelor of Learning Management degree. Our 4-year degree can be fast-tracked in 3 years and that’s financially very appealing,” said Dr Knight.
