Its a nice quiet uni in the woods. It's a beautiful campus. The courses are understanding and at my pace. The community is international and very queer-friendly. Griffith uni has nice classes with recorded lectures and workshops. I also did a biomedical science degree. The lecturers listen to students.

Course Curriculum

7

Most classes were 20-1 faculty. Most classes were practical assignments, lectures, and workshops/tutorials. Most tutorials were done by Ph.D. students. Lecturers by Ph.D. professors.

Exams

Good career options. I didn't have to take any exams to get in. I took a pathway course that counted as the first year of uni. This is supposed to be 300 characters. I had about 100 students in my 2nd-year course. Most classes were 50-80 people. I earned 5's and 7's as grades on a 1-7 GPA scale. I think you need a 14 to get in.

Internship

There were no placements for the ICT degree. occasionally(2-3) times in the 3 years. An industry person would come in and describe their job. That was about it. To be fair job-wise it's 100% on you and you're thrown in the deep end.

Fees

Fee structure. most courses are 1k each. there are scholarships available if you're poor if you have good grades, etc. I genuinely don't know any more information about international students other than the classes are much more expensive for international students. Research the courses, and the money requirements for living there.

Scholarship

The campus does not offer these. IF you are a Ph.D. student or masters student you can apply for a $20k scholarship. The Aus govt isn't approving these though so you likely won't get one. I never worked at uni.
