  • "Getting into a field I had no idea about was daunting, but that slowly changed when I started meeting my lecturers; many had achieved just about everything in their working life and were now passing on the knowledge to me! I sat there in awe learning about how one lecturer had a huge part in the construction side of the Sydney Olympics, to another lecturer who literally studies how buildings fall over. Studying in small class sizes meant I got to interact with both the lecturer and students."
