A GRADUATE’S PERSPECTIVE n XITAO HU (HUGO), China Master of Communication Management, Palmerston North campus “Choosing to study at Massey was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The campus in Palmerston North is quiet, green and beautiful, providing a peaceful environment. When I first arrived there, I was given a warm welcome by all the staff and lecturers from the School of Communication, Journalism and Marketing. The lecturers are very nice and approachable, and the staff are also very friendly and responsive to the needs of students. I really appreciate the kind assistance and support they offered to me, which taught me how to better serve international students in my job as a Customer Service Manager in an international education company.”

A GRADUATE’S PERSPECTIVE n GRACIE XIAO, China Master of Food Technology, Auckland campus "Massey University graduates are also well-known for being practical, hands-on and quickly adapting to the work environment. That is exactly what I wanted to be like when I graduated and the programme has well equipped me to achieve my goal. I have been working in the new product development team for Sanitarium Health & Wellbeing since I completed my Postgraduate Diploma in Food Technology. Later, I was awarded a scholarship from my current employer to complete my Master of Food Technology part-time while continuing working. The most rewarding part of the study is that I can use all the practical skills in my daily job and the knowledge gives me confidence to tackle real work problems."
