Curtin University

I did a lot of research before joining Curtin University. It is well-known for Engineering and it is easy to get around. I went to Open Day at Curtin and had been given a tour here and I decided straight away that this is my university. What I love about Curtin University is the facilities. During exams and assignments, I could stay in the library late and there are so many technology programs and software available for me to do my work in a high standard quality. My advice to future students are always do your research carefully, whether to choose courses or subjects for your studies. Make yourself well-organised and plan ahead of time for any scholarships available. There are so many offerings on campus so make sure you prepare to meet deadlines or allow yourself to enjoy campus life.

"Curtin was my dream university since I passed my undergraduate degree. I got to know from an education fair that Curtin is ranked on the top 1% of the world's universities, which attracted me a lot. There, the English Language Bridging Course gave me an opportunity to not only improve myself on academic skills, but also it taught me how to carry out multiple tasks at a time, handling stressful situations. If you're thinking about a career in Curtin University, you are leading yourself along the right path."

When I went to Curtin Open Day, I loved Curtin it at first sight. It appealed to me straight away. The whole environment, the atmosphere. Curtin offer more options and also provide a lot of support to students. Nursing is a hard course and the facilities are very much up to date, the simulation lab is my favourite because the set up it is exactly like the hospital and it helps me visualised how work placement later on could be like.

I am doing my English Course before entering my Master Degree. I chose Curtin due to the high world rankings it has. It is an important decision to study overseas, so I did a lot of research before joining Curtin. I also have a friend here and she advised me a lot about Curtin. My experience so far is amazing, my professors are very helpful and friendly. I also build other life skills from my teachers and friends at School. It is important to be disciplined to make the most of it in the class. The campus is amazing. I really enjoy walking around campus, and the Gym as well. There are a lot of activities going on on campus and it is so easy to get around and very clean and green. I love Perth too.

I chose Public Relations as it’s closest to what I am passionate about. I thought I wasn’t really going to fit in but Curtin certainly provides me with great support and I had no problem fitting in. I love being involved in all of the events. I got to meet new friends through the activities that Curtin organised and it was a wonderful way to embrace all my experience on-campus. I recommend that once you are on campus, be proactive and make the most of the opportunities to embrace new experiences.

Curtin University is the only place I want to go and get my Nursing Degree. I heard about how they teach and that they focus on theory and practical training and it is a great combination for me. I have a few friends who have done their studies here and they said really enjoyed the campus and campus life. I couldn’t agree more. I changed from Commerce to Nursing and it was a smooth transition was smooth as I had a lot of support from the student services office. They made the process so much easier and I knew who I need to talk to get support. Looking back on the decision of choosing Curtin University, I can say this is the best decision I have ever made in my life. If I could give advice to future students I would highly advise them to always seek out support, whether from the teachers or other students or the student services office. There is so much support available on campus to make our student life a bit easier and more fulfilling.

I screened through a lot of universities in Sydney and West Australia while I was choosing my course and university. I finally made my decision to pick Curtin University. It is famous for Engineering and that is the most important aspect for me as I consider my studies is my big investment from my family. I am very satisfied with what I have learnt from Curtin so far. During my first year, I got a scholarship so it helped me a lot. I was involved in my clubs and networking events on campus. I realised by participating in those events, it is a wonderful way for me to expand my network and also make friends with other people.

I am from China and came here during high school. I had a brother who studied in Curtin University before so I knew how good the university is as well as the facilities. I love the green campus, its high standard facilities and a very practical environment that help make my studies more interesting. The mix of work placement, practical training and theory in nursing is really a highlight of my course.

"The most enjoyable memory in the English Language Bridging Course would be the experience of cultural exchange. We come from different countries, we help each other and support each other, sharing life experiences."

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. Gerry is now working as a Media Developer at Curtin University Faculty of Business and Law.

In my country, the education system is totally different. At Curtin University, I can combine two positive teaching strategies to make my own teaching philosophy, and adjust my approach to meet children’s needs and learning levels. Curtin life is very good! I love Perth the most. I’ve travelled to Melbourne, Sydney and the Gold Coast, but Perth is tranquil and people here are friendly. I love going to the beach with friends… the ocean here is stunning!

I always wanted to choose the best university to pursue my degree. When I enrolled at Curtin University, I found more than I've ever expected: talented and friendly teachers, multicultural friends from more than 14 countries and a beautiful campus. I'm sure that Curtin will play a great role in helping me become a valued food scientist in the future. I'm happy that I've chosen to study at one of the best Australian universities!

The Perth Campus is a place of inspiration and innovation. With technology-rich learning spaces and many opportunities to meet new people, your experiences in Curtin’s welcoming, multicultural environment can change your life.
