Bachelor of International Studies
“My time at UQ has exponentially
increased my interest in global issues,
especially those which revolve around
the confict environment.
“On top of the highly interactive and
engaging syllabus, part of my program
is a compulsory exchange semester
abroad, which further encourages
students like myself to broaden our
world views. I am going on exchange
to Indonesia soon and am really
looking forward to it!”
