"With our new Gosford Central building now open and new student accommodation underway, we're really excited for Gosford Central to host the main activities for Open Day this year.
“More than 2,000 students are now studying in Gosford, so there's a real buzz about the place. We’re working hard with local businesses to make Gosford a vibrant and engaging place to study. Whether you’re finishing high school or thinking about a career-change, come along and chat to the team about your study options.”
The new Gosford Central location will host information sessions showcasing the University’s range of degree’s, student club activations, an expo, guided tours, and live performances from students.
