The success of new student accommodation at Charles Sturt University (CSU) at Wagga Wagga has led to a decision to build more student facilities. The University has appointed Joss Construction to develop an additional 60 rooms at CSU at Wagga Wagga later this year. The beds will be on top of the 200 new rooms which have been under construction by Joss since the middle of 2008. “The additional beds will help CSU meet the additional demand from dentistry and oral health students for accommodation,” said Executive Director of CSU Division of Student Services, Mr Andrew Callander. In the current project, 10 modular concrete and corrugated iron buildings are being built to provide self-catered accommodation, with open plan kitchens and living areas, dedicated study facilities and high quality data networks. The work is part of a large scale project for 600 new beds on CSU campuses. Eighty beds will be ready for Orientation Week, 40 rooms will be completed three weeks later and the remainder will be occupied in the following weeks. “Temporary accommodation arrangements will be made for the students who have been allocated the new rooms,” said Mr Callander.
