Creative camp at CSU to foster future students
1 JANUARY 2003
Twenty five senior students from Central West high schools and central schools will attend a three-day residential camp at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst from Tuesday 28 to Thursday 30 August to stimulate their interest in university study and careers in business and the creative arts. Ms Sue Rogan, manager of Pre-entry Programs / Academic Support at CSU, said, “The I-Manifest program will see students from schools partnered with the CSU Future Moves program divided into two groups, with tutors from the Faculties of Arts and Business and advertising industry professionals, to develop a new product, and learn how to launch and promote it in the market. This is an exciting concept that will lead the students through the process of conceptualising, researching, developing and promoting new consumer products. It will give the students a taste of what university study and life is like, and the professional careers options that might interest them.” The students will work with marketing and advertising academics from the School of Marketing and Management, the School of Communication and Creative Industries, and personnel from Sydney advertising agencies Droga5, and Satchi and Satchi. Future Moves staff and volunteer undergraduate leaders will coordinate and support the activities over the three days.
