'I have found the masters experience academically challenging and relevant. This is my third degree and will be my second postgraduate qualification and QUT's admissions staff have been helpful in considering applications for credit in those areas where I already have qualifications. The class has a good mix of domestic and international students, which helps to create a more dynamic learning and cultural experience.'
