Together we’re working on the development of a novel treatment for head and neck cancers caused by the Human papillomavirus (HPV) that will have fewer side effects than traditional treatments. The great part of Griffith University, especially the medical research, is that the Menzies Health Institute is adjacent to the Gold Coast Hospital, so it gives me the opportunity to collaborate with the clinicians and researchers, and take my research from bench to bedside. Looking at the patients you are motivated to work hard and try to develop a cure for them.” Mushfiq Shaikh, Bangladesh

110 Griffith University International Student Program Guide 2016 I started my studies at GELI as a General English student with very limited English skills. Throughout the year, I progressed from General English (GE) to English for Academic Purposes (EAP) to the Direct Entry Program (DEP Prep and DEP) to Griffith University. I am now studying my masters degree and looking back to my year at GELI, I see that I did not only improve my English skills dramatically, but also learnt to think critically and become an independent learner, skills that have been very useful in university. While studying at GELI I always made sure I challenged myself and embraced my learning experience. I was named the winner of GELI’s

Excellence Award, and rewarded with $1,000 for my dedication in English my studies; it felt great to know that my effort had been noticed. Studying at GELI has been a great experience for me. The professional level of the teachers is exceptional and the Institute’s facilities and support for first time international students is just outstanding. The opportunity to study in such a multicultural environment and meet so many people from all around the world, has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and something I will never forget.
