“My postgraduate course structure allows for flexibility and for the potential to do work experience. Most of my units have applicable real life case studies and most of the course work is very hands on. I also stayed on campus for my first year and it allowed me to meet fellow international students new to Perth and Curtin, so we helped each other settle in!”

“The beautiful lakes, the mesmerising woodland walks and the amiable people in UCD have made my journey so much easier. In the short span of two months, I have started calling this place 'home'. The efforts put in by all the professors and tutors is truly remarkable and I hope to continue having this much fun throughout my time here."

No matter which campus you choose, at Griffith you will have some great facilities available, including libraries, cafes and food precincts, and sport and fitness amenities. Explore some of the best places to hang out and have fun on campus.

“UCD made extensive efforts to make the transition as smooth as it can be, from providing academic support, to airport pick-up, to creating platforms to interact with both students and alumni.”

“Before coming to KOTO, I was very shy and felt quite vulnerable. I didn't even know how to express myself. My first impression when I joined KOTO was this is a true family where everyone cares about one another, the staff and trainees are extremely friendly and helpful. I knew right away that I had landed in the right place. I started to improve my communication skills and made a great effort to learn new skills.

“I chose to study a Bachelor of Commerce in Information Technology and Information Systems at Curtin because the business school is highly regarded worldwide. The course offers students the chance to solve real-world problems and plenty of networking opportunities. My lecturers have really developed my passion for technology and given me the skills to find work as a systems analyst or program developer when I graduate.”

Coming to Northwest has allowed me to grow and learn in ways I never imagined I would. Being a student here means having the support of all faculty and staff members, whose only goal is to help us succeed.

“I wanted to study at a university ranked in the top one percent in the world and that was in close proximity to both Indonesia and Australia.
“My supervisors are really pushing me to dig beneath the surface with my research.”

The MBA course has been a great journey for me, I met a lot of friends and I built a very valuable network. I met a lot of people that have years of experience in the industry and they shared their stories. The important value of the Australian degree to me is that it’s well recognised all over the world, and with this degree I feel like I can work all over the world like a global citizen. I can interact and learn more about the innovation that Australian’s are doing, and also use it to help my country in the future.

"RRU helped me get a real-world learning experience. The multicultural and amazingly experienced cohort, brilliant faculty, research trips all along with fun not only helped me understand tourism from a global perspective but also gave me an opportunity to contribute to the academic world through my assignments and my final thesis. The experience at RRU was invaluable and I feel overwhelmingly lucky to have been a part of this academic journey."

“Curtin has a very vibrant campus. The student guild has done an amazing job in creating events as frequently as possible to keep the campus interesting and make it more than just a place to attend classes and go home. The campus itself has a welcoming vibe and makes you want to stick around. I love how there’s a wide variety of foods, both from the campus’s cafés and the plentiful food trucks.”

“I like that Curtin provides a safe and facilitated environment to learn, and you also get the chance to work in a clinic as you study. It’s a great way to build up your confidence before heading out into the real world.”

"I chose to study Commerce at UCD because of the opportunity the programme offered to study all aspects of business and the option to specialise in final year. As part of the course I also had the opportunity to do an internship abroad and I had the most incredible experience in Norway carrying out my internship! Studying Commerce at UCD has equipped me with the necessary foundational skills and qualities that I need for a career in this area".

“One of the things I love about my Law and Politics course at UCD is how well it has prepared me for my future career. I wish to work in the legal profession in Ireland, and the strong links between UCD Law School and the professional legal world have made this so much easier. I have been helped in so many ways in this regard, from advice on applications, to the writing of references by members of the faculty. It is thanks to the Law School in UCD that I feel like my dream future career is possible.”

"Studying a law degree in UCD has equipped me to begin my legal journey as a barrister or solicitor. Many of my lecturers are leading academics in their field and the legal world. I am also looking forward to taking up my legal internship in the second semester of my third year. After completing my four years at UCD, I hope to become a qualified solicitor with the Law Society of Ireland. This degree also puts students who wish to qualify in the United Kingdom and New York at a significant advantage".

“The best thing about the UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School MBA is the fact the course is experiential, transformational and international. We have three international programs over the course of one year, and that provides us with a global perspective of how businesses work internationally.”

I've never felt acceptance or a sense of belonging this intense until I came to Northwest. This place isn't much, but it is something I can call home.

Getting a Graduate Assistant position, becoming the ISA Organisation's treasurer, and talking with professors seems unachievable a few months back, but the environment here is so nurturing that I strived to become the best version of myself. I'm glad I'm here"!

I chose London Met because of the opportunity to study the emerging and advanced subject that is data analytics, and to broaden my horizons. I wanted to work inside classrooms where the students were diverse, which is also why I chose this University.

Study abroad is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Don't let fear stop you. Anything is possible when the desire is there and it will all be worth it in the end. The connections made will last a lifetime.
