I love Western Sydney for the fact that it offers all that it takes for you to be a well-rounded professional in your field. This university fulfills all my requirements of a foreign education: multicultural environment, well-designed curricula, high-class facilities, and practical training opportunities. The inclusivity and support the university provides towards the international students is simply amazing.

If I were to list down every feature of the Western Sydney University which appealed to me, it would be a perpetually extending, inexhaustible list. The focus of education is student centred with emphasis on industry preparedness. Therefore, as most undergraduates (like myself) seek to gain industry relevant skills and experiences, Western trains us with professional relevance in mind.

Western Sydney University is a great place to learn, develop and grow as a person. It offers you many opportunities, enables you to be part of the active social clubs while gaining knowledge in your field of study. University is what you make of it, but Western provides you a relaxed environment to strive in succeeding. I like that the teachers are extremely approachable and are willing to help you learn when you ask for it. Close consultation and interaction with the teachers have helped me get the best out of my degree.
