Community Engagement

School Prizes

CSU Orange Campus sponsors a number of prizes at schools in the Orange community. This is a tangible way of supporting other education providers in the local community and of encouraging young students to strive for academic excellence.

Orange Cycleway

A two-kilometre cycleway linking the Orange Campus with the city's Northern Distributor Road was completed in late 2009. The cycleway, adjacent to Leeds Parade, caters for the many students and staff who now ride to the University. Manchurian pear trees that were growing along the path of the cycleway were replanted in other sites in the city. The cycleway was funded by Orange City Council, the Roads and Traffic Authority and CSU.

Public Lectures

CSU hosts public lectures at most of its main campuses to inform members of the local community about research currently being undertaken at the University and to strengthen the links between the University and the region it serves. This is one small way of the University demonstrating that it recognises and values the importance of its regional communities.

Our Town, Our University

This column is published in the Central Western Daily newspaper each Wednesday. It aims to keep local residents informed about happenings at the Orange campus, such as new research projects, research outcomes or upcoming seminars or public lectures. In doing so, the column helps foster closer ties between the Orange Campus and the local community.
