Naadira Desai

Of the Australian Universities, I was advised that UQ offered the best courses in their School of Population Health, and since I’m doing a Bachelor of Health Science, that was my deciding factor.  The level and quality of the work provided and expected at UQ is consistently extremely high, and thus requires a lot of effort on students’ part. Definitely top-class stuff here!

The gorgeous weather makes me feel like I’m on constant holiday (besides when I’m studiously engrossed in my university work!). I think that the public transport is great here too, and have found it really easy to make friends. I’ve joined a free aerobics class held by the Riverside Green which I absolutely love, firstly because it’s free and second because I’d never done an exercise class outdoors, and right next to the river! And I love going to the Streets Beach, and markets all over town, although I still have a lot of exploring to do during the holidays!
