Event: Rotary Visit to USC Moreton Bay Campus
Overview: The Moreton Bay Region has the lowest tertiary participation rates in Australia but USC is aiming to change this through its new state of the art campus at Petrie. Join together with fellow Rotarians, USC staff and the Head of Campus, Professor Karen Becker, to learn about the vision for the new USC Moreton Bay Campus followed by a campus tour. The combined Rotary Clubs of the Sunshine Coast have a long and important partnership with USC through the Rotary USC Community Fund (RUSCCF) which was established in 1996-97. Over the past 25 years, the RUSCCF has contributed more than $200,000 to support over 60 USC recipients with a Rotary Postgraduate Scholarship.
