Meet our Vice-Chancellor Scholarship Recipients.

Hi, I'm Temitayo from Nigeria, and I'm studying a Master of Accounting and Finance.

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

My motivation in life comes from a quite number of things, one of which is charitable acts.

The Flinders VC scholarship further confirms my belief that charity is doable at every level - even a smile is a charity. This scholarship has helped me solidify my intention of giving back to my country after my studies.

Some of my greatest accomplishments include successfully leading 15 employees in my former organisation and winning back-to-back awards in recognition of my dedication to work. I have also co-founded a charity organisation called Geriatric Sage with some of my friends to advocate for senior citizens in my country who are being denied of their pension and gratuity. 

What values drive and inspire me? 

The values that drive me are integrity, honesty, loyalty, giving back, teamwork, accountability, and dependability.

The things that inspire me are love, charity, music, acts of kindness, beauty, dreams, and happiness. 

Why study in Adelaide? 

What appeals to me about studying in Adelaide is the fact that Adelaide has globally recognised and industry-accredited Institutions, as well as the cultural diversity that exists there.

What are your career aspirations?

I aspire to have my own accounting and finance firm and become the Minister of Finance in my country to assist in building the economy in Nigeria.

Hobbies

Singing, writing, surfing the internet and hanging out with family. 

When I'm not working or studying, I also enjoy listening to music, playing football/soccer, and having fun and intellectual conversations with friends. 

Favourite quote

'The Future belongs to those that believe in the beauty of their dreams.'

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

My superhero would be to heal. With all the diseases, pain and unhappiness in the world right now, I would like to heal lots of people and give them reasons to live.
