“In my view, RMIT is the best university in Vietnam. We work very hard here but we are also well supported by enthusiastic lecturers. The Professional Communication program is organised professionally and the courses provide us with good background knowledge that meets industry demands. I really enjoy the Work Placement program in which we are guided in career orientation and get to talk to industry guest speakers. I want to become an in-house public relations specialist and now I know what it’s like to work in that job.” Chu Kim Hue, Semester 4, Bachelor of Professional Communication |
