Bachelor of Commerce“I enjoyed learning from top lecturers and being able to choose papers that interested me or were relevant to my career.
The support from the Pacific Islands Centre was tremendous. They provide a lot of useful programmes and activities to help Pacific students succeed in their studies.”
Jacinda Kumar
Bachelor of Arts“What drew me towards the BA was the broad range of papers available – not only could I take a practical television studio class, but I could study the specifics of German or French cinema, and the socio-political context of film.
Continual support from University staff really eased the transition from academic life to my career.”

I loved learning a wide variety of subjects, from anatomy to pharmacology to law, and being able to visualise how what I was learning was going to help me in my future career.”
