I recently completed my Logistics and Supply Chain Management program at RMIT University, and what stood out most was the chance to experience an international learning environment while still living in Vietnam. It’s a balance I didn’t fully appreciate at first, but over time it became one of the most valuable parts of my journey.
From the beginning, the programme felt different. Classes were interactive, with a strong focus on discussion, presentations, and teamwork rather than passive learning. I was encouraged to question ideas, share my perspective, and collaborate with people from different backgrounds. Gradually, I realised I wasn’t just gaining knowledge, but also learning how to communicate and work effectively in a global setting.
At the same time, studying in Vietnam made everything more relevant. My perspective on logistics shifted from simply transportation and warehousing to a more complex, data-driven system shaped by real-world constraints. The challenges we explored in class, such as uncertainty, time pressure, and imperfect data, are the same ones shaping Vietnam’s fast-growing logistics sector today.
Looking back, this experience was about more than technical skills. It helped me understand how to think, adapt, and operate in a global environment while staying connected to my local context. And for me, that’s what made my time at RMIT University truly worthwhile.
