I studied International Business at UOW, starting in Dubai and finishing in Australia. Same degree, two continents.
I studied Masters in international Business.
Things I like were:
– Seamless transfer: Credits moved, momentum stayed. No reset button needed.
– Real international business: Classmates from 40 countries.
– Case studies were lived experiences, not theory.
Two strengths: Dubai gave me Middle Eastern market insight and intimacy. Australia added Asia-Pacific depth and research resources. Together, they made me employable across regions.
Again, UOW’s multi-campus model isn’t just for marketing, it is functional, because
My resume doesn’t just list a degree, it proves I can operate in diverse business environments.
Wollongong itself helps: serious academics, coastal lifestyle, Sydney which is a mega city is still accessible but not overwhelming.
The Caveat (My dislikes):
– Cross-campus moves requires a lot of paperwork, especially with visa application.
– Prepare for the logistics, but know the payoff is real.
– Cultural-shock affected my grade, adjusting in Australia which is totally different from United Arab Emirates.
UOW gave me geography as a career asset.
