What our students are saying

Katie Harris

"I chose to study Communication because I have a passion for writing and social sciences - and I wanted to learn the tools and strategies to communicate professionally and creatively. Everything in this degree is geared to the real-world. The knowledge and skills I’ve gained have helped me immensely in my current role at the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Recently, I was required to develop a marketing and communications brief for Qantas, and I was able to use the templates we were studying to help guide me."
