Australian High Commissioner Harinder Sidhu visited the Centurion University campuses in the State to gain firsthand experience of the skill-development and integration into higher education.
During his three-day stay, Sidhu visited the recently commissioned, “Remote Accelerated Action learning Hub” for the Deakin University, a collaborative project of the Deakin and the Centurion Universities.
On Thursday, she dedicated the Centre for Excellence for Apparel and Textile and inaugurated the Gram Tarang New Office Floor. The HC was accompanied by Ms louise, Mc Sorley, Counsellor (Education and Training) and Shazia Naqvi, Advisor (Education and Training).
Sidhu interacted with students partaking skill training in various workshops.
She also interacted with about 200 students from across India who were in the campus for internship in Automotive and Automobile delivered by the Start-up Enterprise “Sky Rider” established by the Centurion University. She also had a brief interaction with the students who are being trained to work in Poland.
Centurion University President Prof Mukti Kanta Mishra said, “We hope to have 500 Australian students and First Nation Citizens (aborigines) to visit out university every year for knowledge-sharing and learning. Similarly, 30 of our faculty members and students will be in Australia every year for experiential and cultural learning,”
