Joanna from Hampshire
Studying Master of Marketing at UniSA

I decided to take a year off from work to study my Masters. Studying at UniSA was a great option due to the currency conversion, plus studying overseas will look good on my CV.

In my studies, I am impressed by the quality of lecturing. The staff have extensive industry experience, can speak of relevant and recent ‘real life’ issues and I find the teaching style friendly and approachable.

Adelaide is a great place to live and I’m enjoying the good weather, nice wine and friendly people. Its an excellent standard of living, everything in Adelaide is only 20 minutes away: the city, the hills, beaches and wineries. I immediately feel at home here, except the weather’s much better. We drink the same wines (Australian of course!), the same shows are on TV, and I can still follow the cricket.

This year I have had the chance to take an inward look at what I do professionally and focus on the important things. When I return to the UK, I will use the knowledge I have learned and the experiences I have had here to get an even better job.
