Seven universities to attend showcase event at Noosa
An exciting University Showcase event – featuring seven universities, the Sunshine Coast Institute of TAFE and the Australian Defence Force – will be held at Noosa on Thursday 29 March.
The University of the Sunshine Coast has organised the event to provide Year 11 and 12 students in the Noosa and Gympie regions with details about tertiary study options. It will be held at The J, corner Noosa Drive and Grant Street, Noosa Junction, from 6.30-8pm.
Almost every university in Queensland will be there, including the University of the Sunshine Coast, University of Queensland, Queensland University of Technology, Central Queensland University, James Cook University, Griffith University and Bond University.
USC External Relations Coordinator Kylie Russell said the University Showcase would ensure the region’s students were well informed about their future study choices.
“Bringing all the exhibitors to the region provides a one-stop-shop for students interested in tertiary study and gives them an opportunity to find out more about degree programs, admissions, tertiary study costs, accommodation and university life in general,’’ she said.
“For some school students, particularly on the Sunshine Coast, it’s difficult to access so much information across such a wide variety of education providers.
“The University Showcase will give students the best opportunity to make a choice that’s right for them.”
USC’s student ambassadors will be available to talk one-on-one with high school students about their university experiences.
