First Uni Partners Announced for 2021 Courses via TUC
Taree Universities Campus (TUC) has announced the first universities to offer courses through the new Taree campus in 2021.
Central Queensland University and University of New England are confirmed as the first universities in partnership discussions with TUC, and negotiations are continuing with other partners to deliver university degree programs next year.
Expressions of interest are being encouraged from potential students for courses including:
Nursing
Business/Accounting
Agribusiness, Agricultural Science and Rural Science
Arts
Education - Early Childhood, Primary and Secondary
TUC Chief Executive Officer Donna Ballard encourages interested students to visit the Taree Universities Campus website and indicate their choices for studies next year https://www.tareeuni.org.au/
“TUC is all about ensuring we deliver what the community of our Mid Coast region wants and needs,” Mrs Ballard said. “Now is the perfect time to plan your 2021, and we want to hear from you.
Taree Universities Campus will provide a range of services for students studying locally, including face-to-face learning, administrative and student support.
“If you have a local job you want to keep, then you can enrol in a course through the Taree campus and do a unit of study after work. You don’t need to travel far, find accommodation or give up your income, and you don’t need to be a full-time student,” Mrs Ballard said.
“If you’re a parent or carer, you can upskill or re-skill yourself after hours all from a dedicated campus in Taree.
“If you’re a local business and you have staff interested in retraining, encourage them to study through the Taree Universities Campus so they can still work with you whilst studying,” Mrs Ballard said.
“The new uni campus at 1 Pulteney Street, Taree is being fitted out over coming weeks, with an official launch being planned before Christmas. If you’re keen to find out more, please get in touch.”
