The department of communication sciences at the Central University of Technology, Free State (CUT) hosted its annual Industry Day on 16 October 2014. 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. Pictured are Dr Mardi Delport, organiser of the Industry Day and lecturer in communication sciences at the CUT, Nombulelo Mkumatela, lecturer in communication sciences from the Welkom Campus, Nick Efstathiou, general manager of OFM, Motale Sebego, SABC provincial head of current affairs in the Free State, Prof. Henk de Jager, deputy vice-chancellor: Academic at CUT, Dr Mathene Mahanke, deputy director: Language services at the department of sports, arts, culture and recreation, Maricelle Botha, editor of Bloemfontein Courant, Prof. David Ngidi, dean of the faculty of humanities at the CUT, and Dr Brenton Fredericks, head of department: Communication sciences, CUT.
