Graduate Achievements

April Lim

Double Degree in Asian Studies & Media

I have fond recollections of having made the first move in switching over from a single degree in Mass Communications to a double degree of Journalism and Asian Studies at DOLIE. Doing this course has widened my horizons in learning and understanding Asian cultures as well as provided me with the excellent opportunity of studying in Japan for one semester. My experience at Curtin has enabled me to be able to find a job quickly in a Japanese company and thereby guaranteed my continued learning of the language each day. Taking up a third language (in my case) has given me an added advantage in the fiercely competitive society we live in today. (April works for a Japanese company based in Singapore)
