Deakin University

As I did Media courses, compared to the ones at my home universtiy the ones at Deakin are very good as they are very practical. The courses also vary between New Media like web page design courses to traditional photography and film courses. Very good as students can choose an area of media and follow it through.

Be aware that you can only choose from a limited amount of courses as you are not allowed to exceed a specific number of credit points per semester.

Depending on where you come from, you might just have to adjust to a different academic life and university system. It is however well worth the experience, even if some difficulties might occur. Staff is always friendly and more than willing to help at any time.

Don't do journalism there. You won't learn anything. The lecturers don't really know what they're talking about, and there are no resources (you pay thousands of dollars to hear the lecturers explaining that Deakin can't afford any cameras other than tiny camcorders or proper editing software). Even in third year lectures, all the lecturers teach you about journalism is that "if you do a TV story, you need images" and that "sometimes you have to make diffcult decisions".

Just improve it.

Remember that it is possible to change courses/units during the first two weeks of the semester.
