Tips: I got a 20% scholarship based on my merit, which was a nice surprise. The faculty are very approachable, helpful, and understanding, and will guide you throughout your college experience.

Master of Business Analytics - Batch of 2026

A welcoming and enriching experience at Deakin University.

Tips: Before you join this university, you should know that they provide a very welcoming environment. I easily transitioned and didn't face any difficulties. They provide various resources like on-campus support for counselling, transitioning to a new environment, making friends, and mental health support. As far as scholarships, I did get one based on academic merit. Keep in mind that the course you are choosing should be completely aligned with your future prospects. Overall, I am fully satisfied with my course and the country.

Likes (Post study jobs): The student life is vibrant and has a dynamic atmosphere on campus. They not only run interactive sessions every week but also provide free supplies as well, which is very supportive for international students. I love participating in various events. They have a wide range of student clubs in which you can participate. Plus they are rich in providing resources that help us throughout our journey. In an environment like this, we can easily adapt and make it successful.

Dislikes (Value for money): The faculty are highly accessible and approachable, offering personalised support. The teaching methodology is unique, incorporating real-world examples and interactive tools, making learning practical and engaging. Additionally, the faculty is diverse in nationality, bringing global perspectives that enrich the learning experience.

Master of Business (Sport Management) - Batch of 2019

3.3

Multidimensional, multicultural and engaging.

Tips: Students should be open to new opportunities. Networking is key to gaining success in your field. Scholarships depend on how well you've fared in your undergrad course. I received a 75% scholarship based on the same. I'm quite satisfied with the university, the course as well as the country.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): My chances are quite wide since many organisations in sports are on the lookout for fresh graduates and a pool of talent. Given a chance, I would surely permanently migrate here since Australia has a great sports industry and network of professionals.

Dislikes (Part time work): There were few part-time roles available on campus. The average payout used to be 20 Dollars per hour. Managing part-time work along with academics was easily manageable since the assignments were spread out and had plenty of resources available at libraries and online.

Master of Finance - Batch of 2025

Deakin University is a great place for students to explore their potential.

Tips: Before joining Deakin University, students should make sure to apply for scholarships and choose a course wisely. There are a lot of specializations, so make sure you choose one that interests you. Also, be prepared to work hard with your part-time work and university studies.

Likes (Quality of faculty): All the professors at Deakin University are extremely supportive and helpful. They are well-versed in their subjects, easy to approach, good at communication, and considerate. They are very comfortable to talk to and are always available to guide us as and when we need.

Dislikes (Internships): I haven't reached that stage of my course yet, so I am unaware of the internship situation here. Based on what I know, many options are abundant for students, but since I haven't personally ventured into that segment yet, I am not quite sure about the situation.

Master of Information Technology - Batch of 2025

Balanced education and opportunities in a vibrant environment.

Tips: Before joining this college, students should be prepared for a rigorous academic environment that emphasizes independent learning and self-management. The transition to Australia was smooth, but adapting to a more self-directed study approach and managing time effectively was essential. I was fortunate to receive a 20% merit-based scholarship, awarded based on my academic background, which helped ease some of the financial burden and covered part of my tuition fees. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the university, the course, and living in Australia.

Likes (Safety): I rated safety a 5 because Melbourne maintains a high standard of public safety, both on and off campus. In addition to campus security, the university provides safety escorts, well-lit pathways, and emergency call stations. In the city, reliable public transport and police presence contribute to a secure environment. One positive experience has been the consistent feeling of safety when commuting late at night on public transit. The city's commitment to student well-being is evident, making it a comfortable and safe place to live and study.

Dislikes (Internships): For internships, I'd rate it a 3 because while there is some support, finding relevant positions still requires improvements in guidance and industry connections. The university offers career services and workshops, but reference connections are often needed to increase chances. Skills also play a major role, as companies tend to look for candidates with specific technical capabilities. While students can seek internships independently, more structured guidance, skill-development sessions, and university-led partnerships with industry would make it easier to secure meaningful, hands-on roles directly aligned with our field of study.
