I liked the location, facilities and UQ is #3 in Australia for my course. Also, the campus is beautiful and the professors are highly qualified. Also, my friend's brother goes here and says he enjoys it.

I believe the course curriculum is interesting and diverse. I am required to produce an assessment of a variety of mediums - interviews, walkthroughs, short stories, etc. I'm confident the course will equip me for the workplace.
