“After completing a Bachelor of
Engineering (Computer Science &
Engineering) (Hons) at the University
of Mauritius in 2000 then working for
4 years, I migrated to Australia and
realised I needed to further my studies
to enhance my management skills.
I decided to undertake a Master of
Information Management at UWA. It was the perfect
bridge between technical IT and management.
I chose UWA because of its first class reputation and
beautiful architecture. I believe that spending time in
such an inspiring environment enhances the overall
learning experience”
