Ten South Korean students have joined five compatriots who arrived in 2009 to enjoy a warm welcome to Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Albury-Wodonga, part of an expanding collaboration that sees Korean students complete the final two years of undergraduate degrees through CSU’s Faculty of Business. The students are living in the CSU student accommodation at Thurgoona, allowing them to enjoy living and developing friendships with other students. Ms Kim Ji Su, or Sue, said she enjoyed the lively interaction between lecturers and students which was very different to university classes in South Korea, while Mr Choi Kuk Jin said he enjoys playing tennis and other sports which were very expensive in his home country. Head of CSU’s International School of Business and Partnerships, Associate Professor John Atkinson, said the students were “enjoying their educational experience in Albury-Wodonga” and that the number of students from South Korea at CSU in Albury-Wodonga is expected to grow. The first group of Chinese students are due to commence a new Master of Business course based in Albury-Wodonga in the middle of 2010.
