Bachelor of International Secu rity Studies
"I’m from Vietnam. I chose ANU because it’s one of
the top universities in the world, on par with many top
British and American universities. During my time in the
Bachelor of International Security Studies, I’ve had my
ups and downs, challenges and rewards. Every class
is robust and involves detailed discussion with rigorous
research on topics. Every essay is the fruit of hard
work and long hours of labour.
I’ve taken a minor in Historical International Security
because I think they are essential for an international
student like myself to become familiar with Western
cultures and their progress of civilisation.
Without the study of history, it would be challenging to
make sense of what’s happening today. In the future,
I hope to work at a non-government organisation like
the United Nations or ASEAN. These organisations
are where I can apply the most of my knowledge and
findings and actively contribute to peacekeeping."
