Â鶹ֱ²¥ of Technology graduate Andrew Bright has been recognised for his academic excellence at the recent Curtin Business School (CBS) Prize Ceremony.<\/p>\n
The Wattle Grove resident received the Marketforce Marketing Communications prize for the best graduating student with a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Marketing and Advertising.<\/p>\n
The three-time award winner said he was proud to finish his degree with a commendation.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was a mature age student when I enrolled and I was quite nervous about it. I\u2019d been out of a learning environment for long enough to be daunted by it,\u201d Mr Bright said.<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtin staff were a great help in this regard because they could see I was serious about my degree. It\u2019s nice to be acknowledged for all the long hours I put into my assignments.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Bright was on the Curtin Vice-Chancellor\u2019s List three times. The List recognises the top one per cent of undergraduate students across all disciplines.<\/p>\n
In 2007 and 2008 he was awarded a CBS prize for the best student in the Consumer Behaviour and Marketing Law units.<\/p>\n
Mr Bright is now part of the Department of Treasury and Finance\u2019s graduate program.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe graduate program is great as it provides a diverse work program which allows for plenty of growth both professionally and personally,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
