    I have been to Australia for 6 years (before the Covid-19). Which started in UQ in 2017. UQ is the most beautiful uni in Qld, it both did very well on the academic and wonderful environment, and that's why I choose UQ.
    Thank you for your video that I look back on my uni life, and I am so happy to see the new updates on campus.

    Hi Rob
    I have previously spent 2 semesters in Australia during undergrad, and am considering a graduate diploma as I can get some financial aid - and lack some IT skills to advance into the roles in the software industry I work in.
    I know UQ is comprehensive and there are other universities with a more distinct technology focus like Curtin, UniSA, and QUT where they have GDIP in IT options.
    But this time I want to try a Go8 and Brisbane is my top choice. UQ offers more course variety in their IT program aswell.
    1: Do you think a GDIP in IT would not be a worthy investment? I am not looking to compete CompSci graduates but want grow more knowledgeable in a commercial role.
    2. Should I toss away the more sentimental aspect of trying a Go8 environment even though IT is not necessarily their main discipline?
    Brisbane is my preferred city and also has part time options to work.
    Thanks for your work

    • @ChoosingYourUni
      @ChoosingYourUni  Рік тому +1

      Sorry, totally missed this question. This all depends on your priorities. IT skills (particularly in emerging disciplines like AI and cybersecurity) will alsways be good choices. I love Brisbane as a student city, so reckon UQ is a good option.

    Thank you for making a video about UQ! May I ask, if I want to study physiotherapy, which university, UQ (in Brisbane) or UniSA (in Adelaide), do you think is better in terms of the allied health course, facilities, and the learning environment?

    • @ChoosingYourUni
      @ChoosingYourUni  2 роки тому

      Ah that's a tricky one. Both unis have good allied health programs - UQ has a better campus life imo (physio is at City East at UniSA, which is more or less just a building - not the awesome huge campus that UQ has) but UniSA is right in the heart of Adelaide.
      If it were me, based on my interests and preferences, I'd probably go to UQ if I could. I love Brisbane as a city (though Adelaide is great too).

      These are all excellent universities and are similar in that they are all high-ranking, research intensive institutions. All have excellent courses, facilities and student support.
      Probably the biggest difference is between the three cities, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne - Brisbane the most affordable city (and the most liveable, in my personal view). Sydney and Melbourne much larger and home to more work opportunities.

    I'm from the U.S. and I've become very interested in going to Uni in Australia, UQ being at the top of my list so far. The main differences I don't understand are 1)How do the colleges work? I see that you can apply to specific housing called colleges at UQ and they have their own websites, I don't really get what they are for or if they are the equivalent to dorms in the America. 2) Do most people live on/near campus like in america?
