Career News
Engineering
Engineering is a broad area of study with many specialties. The following link gives an overview of some of the areas it can cover.
Many of our students choose to study Engineering at UNSW or Sydney University. Newcastle and Wollongong Universities are also popular. Did you know that on our doorstep CSU Engineering in Bathurst is really ‘making waves’ with their engineering program. See the attached article
Exercise Physiology
Interested in sports physiotherapy? Have you considered clinical exercise physiology as being a more suitable pathway than physiotherapy?
“Where physiotherapists assist people with movement disorders using techniques to assist muscles and joints to move to their full potential, clinical exercise physiologists use exercise to prevent and rehabilitate disease and injury in the community”.
Students will study an Exercise and Sport Science Australia (ESSA) accredited undergraduate exercise science degree followed by graduate studies in exercise physiology.
Universities that offer these courses in NSW include:
- UNSW – Bachelor of Exercise Physiology
- University of Sydney – Bachelor of Applied Science – Exercise Physiology
- UNE – Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology
- UOW – Bachelor of Exercise Science/Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology

Student Newsletters - NESA
Over 205,000 in NSW from Year 10, 11 and 12 students have received their first issue of NESA’s Student News for 2018 on Thursday 22 March.
Schools are requested to check that their students have read them and to look out for future editions, as they contain important information that is relevant to them.
Students who did not receive a newsletter should check the email address in their Students Online account, accessed via My Details. They will need to activate their account if they have not done so already.
Copies of all Student News editions are available on the NESA website, including the latest editions of 2018:
University Open Days
The list of Open Days for universities in NSW has been released. Many of these Open Days fall in the weekend before or during our Trial HSC examinations. I would encourage Year 11 students to consider attending as many Open Days as possible this year as there is often a clash with our Trial HSC examinations in Year 12.
