10. RMIT University© 2012 Career Adviser Seminar 10 Quotes from Students The trip was memorable on many levels. This is due to the wonderful RMIT staff that worked tirelessly to organise the trip and ensure events and visits were as smooth as possible. As well as caring for the sick and absent minded. This was complimented by the charismatic, enthusiastic and wonderful staff from Maryland University (UM). There was more than one lecture that captivated me, stimulating the learning gene. There are boundless opportunities for young graduates to seek overseas postings and cadetships with the likes of the World Bank, GE and IMF. Thank you to the RMIT staff, l enjoyed your company immensely and you made the transition to the US very easy. I would encourage any RMIT students to consider a Study Tour option. It provides an opportunity to study overseas at a significantly decreased cost and within a group setting. It augments personal growth and self reliance, intangible life skills that can only benefit an individual.
