La Trobe is a very nurturing university and environment. La Trobe has provided an easy transition into university life – moving away from home can be overwhelming and I’m grateful for the support.

I completed my Bachelor of Science and Master of Science at La Trobe. It’s a wonderful place to learn and I particularly enjoy the strong sense of community. When I finish my PhD, I hope to take the knowledge and skills I’ve gained and apply it in industry.
