Business Student Testimonials
"I found the lecturers at CSU to not only be understanding and approachable, but also sincere, which certainly made my return to study that much easier to cope with. I began as a full-time student and at the end of my first year was offered a position with a local accounting firm. The switch from full-time study to part-time study was smooth and hassle-free due to the flexibility of the course structure. This flexibility also meant I was able to meet my many family and work commitments.
"CSU also offers the option of studying either on or off campus, meaning students can select course options which best fit in with their particular lifestyle. CSU has been instrumental in providing me with the opportunity to undertake a major career change."

"During my time with the School of Business I completed three years full-time study and a year on the Cooperative Education Program. The Cooperative Education Program gives students the opportunity to gain experience in industry - and I believe this was invaluable. The size of the student population at CSU's Albury-Wodonga campus has meant that it has always been possible to access lecturers and staff at any stage. Small lecture and tutorial sizes means that staff have the opportunity to know you as a person which is of great benefit.
"Albury-Wodonga offers many attractions from snow fields to the Hume Weir and wineries to any amount of wonderful sporting facilities. All of this is at less cost than that of our city counterparts."

"I found my course challenging, inspirational, achievable and rewarding. The course is designed to provide the student with the theory necessary to be able to perform the practical tasks in the real world. I find this combination beneficial to myself as an employee and my prospective employers.
"The teaching staff are always approachable and willing to provide direction and assistance. The library staff will often go beyond the call of duty to assist the lost and desperate student. It is knowing that those whom work at Charles Sturt University possess human qualities, that can make your most desperate moments bearable.
"Charles Sturt University is a rural and therefore more laid back type of university. But that doesn't mean it is any less academically, in fact these qualities is what makes it a great place to study.
"To be a university student you need two important qualities - time management and social skills. Both are applicable to your studies and your extra curricular activities. These qualities will make your life at university, interesting, fulfilling and fun."
