Who or what made you choose to study this?

After working for 3 Digital Marketing Internships, I realised the importance of Business Digitalisation and how it improves work efficiency in the corporate world. I have decided to pursue a Bachelor's in Computer Science while continuing my pursuit of Business (Commerce) in my Bachelor.

What’s been your favourite course so far and why?

I think any Software Engineering course must be my favourite, namely CSSE1001. This course gave me the ability to work on multiple projects throughout the semester which gave me many challenges and problems to solve along the way.

If you could give one piece of advice to someone considering studying at UQ, what would that be?

Not only is UQ one of the prestigious universities, but it is also conveniently located in Brisbane, which is a major city but still with a much slower pace of life. Coming from Hong Kong and growing up in Singapore, I have always stayed in a fast-paced major city.
Being able to live in Brisbane would definitely be an eye-opening experience for most who come from major cities.
