The course offered real-world experience, everything from innovation and entrepreneurial skills.
Why did you choose Event Management at UTS?
I chose the course as it offered a huge amount of real-world experience, everything from innovation and entrepreneurial skills to the last year where you finish with a capstone project and produce a real event using all of the skills you learned along the way.
What was the most valuable thing you learned?
I think as a student we get forced to do group assignments and whilst we generally don't like it at the time. Working in any industry is like a continuous group assignment so I think finding your strengths and weakness and how you can contribute to a team environment is a huge learning of mine.
What are you most proud of during your time at UTS?
In my last year of university, I took part in an internship program over in Jakarta, Indonesia working for Edelman. I am most proud of taking part in this incredible experience whilst getting real world job experience in another country.
