“My learning experience at Flinders is great. Lecturers are so supportive; they would try their best to come up with ideas to assist us in understanding concepts and answer our questions. 

When there is an assignment assigned, lecturers would spend an hour explaining all the details that we need to take note of.

The most exciting thing for me is meeting new people that has similar interests with me. Flinders has a lot of clubs, such as Volleyball, Frisbee, Japanese, French, Photography, and many more you can think of.

What stands out at Flinders are the supportive community, the amazing environment, and so much study space provided. If you are looking for studying surrounded by greenery, interesting and friendly people – and you want an unreal university experience, Flinders University is the way to go.”
