Meet our Vice-Chancellor Scholarship Recipients.

Hello my name is Kavindra from Sri Lanka, and I’m studying Master of Media and Communication.

Flinders University Apply Scholarships Go Beyond Scholarships Vice-Chancellor International Scholarship Recipients Kavindra Lokuliyana

My intrinsic motivation comes from a genuine passion for media and communication. I'm driven by the desire to create meaningful and impactful content, to tell stories that resonate with people, and to contribute to the evolving landscape of media.

I'm always eager to learn and explore new ideas, and I'm deeply motivated by the desire to help others and make a positive impact in their lives.

My career aspiration is to excel in media production and visual content creation. I aim to blend artistic storytelling with technical expertise, overseeing the entire creative process and crafting impactful narratives.

Why study in Australia? 

I chose to study in Australia for several compelling reasons. Firstly, Australia is renowned for its high-quality education system and is home to many prestigious universities and institutions. The opportunity to receive a world-class education in my chosen field of media and communication was a major draw.

Secondly, Australia's multicultural society and welcoming attitude toward international students were appealing. I knew that studying in Australia would expose me to diverse perspectives and cultures, enriching my personal and academic experiences.

What is your favourite thing about studying in Adelaide? 

I appreciate studying in Adelaide for several reasons. One of my favourite aspects is the city's relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Adelaide offers a comfortable and safe environment for students, making it conducive to focused learning and personal growth. 

The city's strong sense of community is another standout feature. Adelaide has a vibrant student population, and there are numerous opportunities to engage in extracurricular activities, join clubs, and participate in cultural events. This sense of belonging enhances the overall study experience.

My favourite things

Two of my most cherished hobbies are traveling and photography. Traveling provides me with inspiration and a chance to explore diverse landscapes and cultures, while photography allows me to capture and share the beauty and stories I encounter along the way.

These hobbies not only enrich my personal experiences but also enhance my skills in visual storytelling and media, combining passion with professional growth.

Favourite film

My favourite film is Avatar by James Cameron. He and his team created a world on Pandora that feels so incredibly real.

If you could have a superpower, what would it be and why?

If I were to have a superpower, It would be the power to infuse joy and smiles into people's lives. This ability would allow me to brighten someone's day with a simple thought or gesture, filling them with happiness and spreading positivity wherever I go.
