Travelling to every country in the world has always been one of my dreams. But not everyone has to approach travel in the same way, My option to embark on a short term exchange in a European country inspires me to think differently. As a final-year -student at QUT, this is my chance to ensure that I made the most out of my university experience.
Studying overseas will grant me opportunities to discover different European cultures, but at the same time it allows me to gain credit towards my degree. Especially ass a business student, going global opens doors into new world, where I will develop personally, academically, and professionally.
