“I am really satisfied with the MBA program at Swinburne University (AGSE). I now have a lot more business knowledge even though I had more than four years of work experience. The MBA lecturers are so caring; they support and encourage me a lot, which helps me feel more confident and happy.

“I like my classmates as well, especially the Aussie students, who at first I felt rather nervous working in groups with because I was worried about my English knowledge. However, when actually working with them, I found they are so helpful and friendly. I believe that all I am learning in my course at Swinburne will be valuable for my future career.

“I chose Swinburne because I have some friends and colleagues who graduated from Swinburne University and returned to Vietnam, where they have very good jobs. I also have some friends who used to study at Swinburne and are living in Australia – they also have good jobs here. Before I came here, I consulted some Australian teachers about Swinburne, and most of them advised me to choose Swinburne because of its educating quality, reliability and prestige.

“I also like Swinburne’s services, such as the healthcare services and the international support services. There are many other services, such as the counselling service, the language and academic skills advisers and accommodation support. I feel that I made the right decision when I chose Swinburne for my study in Australia.

“In general I would recommend Swinburne to other students because this university has many courses at different campuses. Swinburne programs combine both theory and practical work, making it easier to get a job in the future. With a friendly and comfortable environment like Swinburne, I believe that you will have a good time and memories of your student life, whether you are a new student or you return to university after working, like I did.”
