“I learnt tonnes of information regarding leadership and management. My learning was bolstered by the modern, state-of-the-art teaching facilities as well as highly qualified and experienced lecturers and tutors. 

Flinders is also leading the way in research, with new knowledge and skills created daily. This is made possible with the invaluable assistance of experienced, committed and dedicated academics.

Studying the Master of Education, majoring in leadership and management is taking me on unknown paths and journeys. I secured a great job – I am really amazed and grateful I chose Flinders.”

“I was deeply satisfied with my choice to study at Flinders. From the outset, I could see the promise of a wide range of possibilities to be explored.

My lecturers imbued a sense of humanity that connects us all, and gave me my dream to strive for a better and more humane future of education.

I cherish my days at Flinders University. The lecturers and academic team were amazing and did not just teach me, but shaped me into the person I am today.  I am equipped to lead transformative change in education in Pakistan. At Flinders, you can achieve academic success – but you will also experience something extraordinary that will transform your life.”

“Flinders University stands out because I find the whole environment beautiful! The Bedford Park campus has a lot of greenery, especially where the Education building is located on the hill.

It makes me happy being close to nature, surrounded by trees, a lake, birds, ducks, and a clear, blue sky. I’m glad I chose Flinders – they have guided and supported me as an international student with resources and services that can help me cope with studies. Lecturers and tutors are supportive in my learning, particularly when I struggle to understand the requirements for any topic assignment.”

Nicole Kee
Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Special Needs) and Bachelor of Disability Studies, Malaysia

“I have to say; all my tutors and lecturers are really helpful – they provide me with active feedback and promote equality in the classroom. 

They care about everyone in the class. I can always feel their understanding and support for international students like me – it helps me feel settled and comfortable. Throughout my degree, I had four placements, which means I will have had practical early childhood experiences from the first year of university. All of my university placement topic coordinators and liaisons have always been supportive and speedy in replying and giving feedback. I truly felt they were here to support me as an international student to achieve my best in an unfamiliar environment.”
