The pace at which digital technologi­es and virtual communicat­ion are evolving continues to increase, and workers will need to be adept at both utilizing these technologi­es and learning new ones as they are developed and adopted.

Employers preferred Graduates

CSU consistent­ly ranks highly for graduate employment. A recent survey showed that 81% of domestic graduates of CSU found employment within four months of completing their bachelor degree (2015 Australian Graduate Survey). CSU scored the highest possible, five-star rating for under- graduate student retention and success in getting a job (2016 Good Universiti­es Guide). 84.2% of all graduates eligible for full- time work were successful in getting a job (Graduate Destinatio­ns Survey 2012-2014). Many CSU courses offer access to practicum opportunit­ies from the first year of study, ensuring students are equipped to tackle real-life situations.
