My first year at Deakin was:

An adventure! I moved from a country town, met heaps of great people and began learning in whole new environment.

I didn't expect to learn:

That public relations is all about networking - no matter how big or small.

Studying at Deakin gave me:

Direction and work experience. The practical experience and advice I received throughout my course from lecturers and tutors really gave me an insight into the workforce. Deakin really gave me the edge in the competitive market of graduate employment.
