Excellent people with liberal thoughts and a scope of better career and personal growth.
Tips: The most challenging part for me was figuring out how to enrol in courses. I approached it like any other new experience, like riding public transportation or meeting new people. It was daunting at first, but it was worth it. Now I feel comfortable going anywhere, anytime, and talking to anyone. Classes typically meet two or three times a week during the fall and spring semesters and only once or twice a week during the summer semester. Each class lasts for a maximum of two or three hours. The classes are conducted in a workshop format, where professors and students interact and communicate throughout the class. You will likely spend more time in the library than in class. You can literally sit in any class with your student card and no one checks. I received a standard 20% international student scholarship for Indians without doing anything. Usually, standard scholarships are applied to your offer letter when you apply for the program at the university. For some scholarships, you have to apply after you receive your offer letter. I love this country and the people here. I have not met any rude people yet. I would say to get out of your comfort zone and participate in every university event, especially orientation never miss that. If you miss any events, you will likely end up with fewer friends because the more you meet someone, the closer you become. There are also numerous clubs for every interest. Join them and go to their events. Prioritize your university studies over part-time jobs. Otherwise, you will likely end up doing the same part-time job after graduation.
Likes (Internships): There are a lot of guidance available from universities. Most universities have a job-helping department, like RMIT's Jib Shop, that can help with reviewing resumes, preparing for job interviews, and even finding part-time jobs. The university also organizes a part-time career fair for students once a year in October. There are a lot of internships available, but a degree alone with the university name on it won't get you one. You need to have skills, good experience (university projects/university subjects), and network with others. If you don't have these things, consider a university that offers work-integrated learning (WIL) along with a degree. WIL is a mandatory internship program in which the university places you in a company for an internship or helps you find one on your own.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are several Indian restaurants in Tarneit, Truganina, Point Cook, and Werribee. The average cost per person is 25-40 Dollars. Some popular restaurants are Kasba on Lakes Road Tarneit and Dosa Hut in Tom Roberts Parade in Point Cook. I prefer to cook at home, but I do go out to eat occasionally.

Smooth transitions to your desired future state.
Tips: Students should know what you're there for, have clarity with what you study and have the next steps ready. Feel free to ask any form of questions to your lecturers, professors and even students. Dont be afraid to reach out to people when you need help. Everything will work out once you have that clarity.
Likes (Part time work): There is always work available when you look for it. You can start by applying for jobs through recruitment agencies, but asking people face to face helps as well. There is some part time work offered as well as volunteer work. Every experience will put you at an advantage.
Dislikes (Value for money): I pay HECS money, but it hasn't affected me much because I live at home with family and money hasn't been a problem. However, I do work part-time, which is beneficial because I can spend money, go out, and explore. Plus, there is free food on campus twice a week.

RMIT is good but needs a little introspection for the subjects.
Tips: Don't expect anything from what the people say and just go with the flow. Students should know that you will have to struggle with most things as working here is totally different from India. People are easygoing and that can be frustrating most of the time as work gets delayed a lot here however, you will also find many part-time opportunities so be prepared for that.

Master of Engineering (Management) - Batch of 2024

University is great and helps you build a great professional life.
Tips: Students should know that RMIT is the only university, which doesn't conduct examinations. The assessment is purely based on 3 assignments. Students must take any programme if they have a basis in that programme. Every student from India gets a minimum of 20% scholarship including me. I am glad that I got this opportunity because I learnt how to manage time, and gained a spirit of diversity and confidence to face and overcome failure.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The course is based on direct application in the real world. This helps students to learn and implement the same in companies. Plus, the faculty takes feedback from students and updates courses semester-wise. Faculty members are friendly and can always approach them through Outlook or personal meetings for any technical or personal problems.

The city is very expensive and it is difficult to find a part-time.
Tips: Students should know that you might feel that the community of this college would discriminate against you, but the college community is very supportive. They helped me in all aspects, including accommodation, food, and transportation. The campus is very good. The fees for this course at RMIT are very high at 40,000 AUD per year, and the living costs in Australia are also very high. However, the college is good, the students are supportive, and the staff is cooperative. So, if you can afford it, you might consider attending.
Likes (Safety): This college provides fantastic hostels for students. They are very clean and have all the essential. Safety measure are taken very seriously, with CCTVs everywhere and security guards surrounding the college.
