Nina

My background makes me akin to international relations as I have been roaming Europe and now the world as a result of tertiary opportunities.  I find people interesting and the way cultures interact, fascinating.  What interests me most is international migration, and therefore a combined degree in Arts/Law was the best option for me.  

ANU is the best place in Australia to pursue an international focused degree.  The University's outstanding reputation was a big push for my transition to Canberra.  I grew up in Melbourne and decided to make the move so I could get the most out of my degree.  I hope to find employment overseas once I graduate - and ANU seemed like the best launching pad for this.

The most suprising thing about my course is that Law isn't as dry as I thought it would be! Every day at Uni is different in its own way.  I spend a lot of time running to classes and making the most of the campus.  I love sipping Chai lattes with friends while discussing big issues from all around the world.

I strongly believe that anyone coming to ANU should come with an open mind and willingness to try new things.  I am a firm believer in joining as many clubs and societies as possible as they are a lot of fun and a great way to meet new, interesting, and like-minded people.

ANU is it's own community which I don't think you could experience in a metropolitan city.  It's very friendly and small enough that you don't feel like a nobody.  The same can be said for Canberra itself - and that is the very charm of the city.  

Nina has since graduated from the university.
