“I’ve always wanted to be an analyst in the mining sector,
managing resources and providing revenue for my
country. I’d also be glad to work as an analyst in one of
the public offices in my country, or at a banking agency or
charitable organisation.
“The lectures at AUT are very informative and up-to-date,
yet easy to understand. Back home in Papua New Guinea,
we do a lot of handwritten assessments but here everything
is digital, which makes me enjoy studying and learning even
more. I’ve met a lot of great people since I arrived in 2019,
and they have been nothing but helpful Explore your study options
