Interest surges in UWS post-grade courses

The University of Western Sydney experienced a surge post-graduate business courses when 465 interested people turned up to an information evening, at the Parramatta campus, when the usual figure is between 30-40 people. Robyn McGuiggan dean, of the College of Business, said it was “absolutely amazing … and that Western Sydney being a logistics corridor probably explains some of the interest”. She said the courses were industry focussed and market drive. “We do have a lot of contact with local industries, so there would be some industry referrals and recommendations too,” she said.
