Testimonials
Your contact officer
Caroline Wong, Student Contact Officer'I have had the pleasure of working with the Australia Awards recipients for over five years now. I'm given the ability to see the awardees through the beginning all the way to the end of the process of graduating at QUT.
Being able to provide support and service to them is a fulfilling journey. I have gained a lot of experience from the diversity, life and personality they bring into the rich mix of cultures of our community.'
