Why did you choose Macquarie University?

Macquarie is very famous in China and it has advanced knowledge not just in Accounting and Commerce, but also in the Graduate School of the Environment. I have read that graduates from Australian universities have the highest income.

How is Macquarie different to your previous classes in China?

Classes here use workshops, where we can discuss ideas with other students... you learn a lot from your classmates. Also, teachers here want to hear your opinion.

I am the only non-English speaking background student in my class, and it is a big benefit. Lecturers were worried about me at first because they thought I might be shy, but I don't feel shy at all. All of the lecturers in the Graduate School of the Environment are very kind and very considerate of international students.
