A group of CSU students has recently helped bring some relief and joy to drought-affected farmers and the community in Grenfell.

Nothing beats hands-on experience, especially in a challenging climate and new culture. This was the experience of eight final year CSU students, enrolled in the physiotherapy course based in Albury-Wodonga and Orange.

Forget the shopping, never mind the fine dining, Singapore's libraries took centre stage when a group of Charles Sturt University (CSU) students visited the South East Asian nation.

It's been quite a year for Charles Sturt University (CSU) student Ms Madeline Jensen. She has spent 2012 completing a degree, volunteering in a Vietnamese orphanage for children with disabilities and applying for work as a medical radiation scientist.
