Easy going industry experience.
Tips: There is 30% scholarship for international students. Overall satisfied but everything is about industry experience so look for universities that have good placement and internship options rather than University ranking. The country is good, people have more civic sense than in India.
Likes (Internships): There are portals on the website for internships but not a lot of variety. Often they are unrelated to your course. Guidance is available but you have to contact the internships team on campus. Many people do not know that there are employability services.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It's getting more difficult every year to secure residence. I would immigrate permanently if given the chance. It is very important to choose a course and a career that will give you higher chances of residence. At the moment it's not looking good for IT. Nursing, healthcare and manual labour like carpentry have more chances for PR.

Studying and living in Melbourne.
Tips: Swinburne really balances academics with hands-on learning. Most of my classes included real projects and industry connections, which made things extremely practical. I've been pretty happy. Overall, my course has met my expectations. Living in Australia has been a great experience too, and if you're into coffee, you'll definitely love it here.

Swinburne is fine but it is very hard to find an accommodation.
Tips: I received a scholarship for my degree because I scored 93 percent in an Indian high school but it takes time to get one. I am satisfied with the course and with being in Australia. However making friends is difficult because Australian culture is very close and not open to everyone. The availability of accommodation is a problem so make sure to find one as soon as you land.

Decent education but a challenging transition for IT students.
Tips: Transitioning to Australia can be challenging. The cultural environment is quite different, with a more independent and self-directed approach to learning. I got just a 2500 AUD scholarship in 2 years as it is in Professional Computing. I am not satisfied with the course as we have to write a lot of reports in a short period.

It is a warm, friendly and helpful environment.
Tips: There was nothing as a cultural difference. I did avail of scholarships. The allowance was 30% and got it through my previous academic performance. Pretty well satisfied with the country and university. The course is a bit more complicated than expected but with great guidance, it is easy to cope with.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The campus is properly connected to the rest of the city through public transport but the transport system is bad with full of disruptions. Other than that there are many modes of transportation such as trams, buses etc. accessible to the city and the university.
