I plan to further my studies at university and move to Australia to become a Mechanical Design Engineer. I would 100% recommend my course. It has taught me what I need to know to succeed.Matthew England (Engineering) -
It made sense for me to study in an area where I could work alongside my studies. There is a huge benefit to the HLA because you can study locally, there’s no course fees and you learn about the industry while you’re working. There are so many employment opportunities!Roberta Deehan (HLA in Hospitality and Tourism Management)
