The Department of Communication Sciences at CUT hosted its annual Industry Day at the end of 2013.  The aim of the Industry Day was to give Language Practice students a glimpse of what the industry has to offer.  Industry experts in the field of Communication Sciences and Language Practice were invited to talk to the students.  This served as an excellent opportunity for the students to enquire about a particular field of interest, whilst also using the opportunity to network and build up contacts.
