Digital media showcase celebrates real-world student impact
CQUniversity will celebrate the work of Bachelor of Digital Media students at the 2025 Digital Media Project Showcase.
On Friday 24 October, the virtual event will highlight the innovative work of students in CQU’s Collaborative and Digital Media Project units.
This year, 22 students have contributed their talents to six pro bono projects supporting local not-for-profit organisations.
The students produced client-based projects for Engedi disability services, The Men’s Health Facility Rockhampton, Bat Conservation & Rescue QLD Inc, Wide Bay Hospital and Health Service, Quoin Island Turtle Rehabilitation Centre and University of the Third Age (U3A).
These projects will be displayed in a virtual exhibition of student work, offering an immersive digital gallery experience.
Head of Course for Digital Media, Associate Professor Steven Pace said the showcase was an important opportunity to highlight both the calibre of CQU students and the community benefit of their work.
“The showcase is designed to celebrate the innovative and professional work our students are producing through real-world client projects,” Associate Professor Pace said.
“These experiences allow students to develop authentic, job-ready skills while making a tangible contribution to not-for-profit organisations across our regions.
“It reinforces the power of creative practice to not only build graduate confidence but also to make a difference in the community.”
