Jharna Chamlagai Bhutan Bachelor of Law/Bachelor of Science The first-year science/law student, who left her birth country of Bhutan as a refugee, says: "I had this feeling in the back of my mind that if I did law, I might have to give up on my love for science, so finding out about this double degree at ANU was amazing. Now I’d like to find a career where I can help people." Her interest in science and the human body, she says, was fueled by a kidney disorder and her personal research into the condition. And her interest in law developed as a result of her parents’ background.

Marika Niihori Cairns, Australia Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) (PhB) - Science "Imagine attending a university situated at the capital of Australia, the heart of global research, and ranked number 24 in the world! To this day I have trouble believing this but I’m proud to call it my university. I study a Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) in Science and it has been the best decision I have ever made in my life. Moving from Cairns to Canberra, and living off campus was a very daunting idea. However, through the non-residential college Griffin Hall and my small PhB cohort I have been able to make many friends which allowed me to transition smoothly into university life. Through PhB I have already undertaken a research project in physics with leading researchers that has opened doors. My other major concern was whether I’d find the opportunities to balance out my studies with extracurricular activities. Never fear as ANU has over 180 clubs and societies! It’s rather hard not to get involved! I’ve had the opportunity to work in the team for the annual ANU Student Research Conference. I have been elected as the President of the ANU Music Society and am a SET4ANU orientation leader. Overall my experiences at ANU have been life changing and I cannot wait to see what opportunities lie ahead in the future."

Amit Poonath India Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) / Juris Doctor "My name is Amit Poonath, I finished a Bachelor of Psychology (Hons.) from the ANU and I am currently enrolled in a Juris Doctor program. I am an international student from India and this is my ANU story. The ANU exemplifies the phrase world-class. The unique exposure to excellent learning experiences coupled with access to the world’s leading minds makes ANU a global hub of knowledge. My time at the ANU has been colourful to say the least. I have had the good fortune of engaging in a range of academic and extracurricular activities over the course of my tenure. From engaging in national and international academic internships, conferences and mentoring programs; to residential leadership positions, community outreach and personal development programs, I have been able to uphold and cherish a standard that is characteristic of the ANU community. The ANU is not just another university; I have found it to be a dedicated institution that paves way for growing minds to be nurtured. I chose ANU and in turn chose a world of opportunities."

Nu Nguyen Vietnam Bachelor of International Security Studies "I’m from Vietnam. I chose ANU because it’s one of the top 20 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’s robust and detailed discussion comes with rigorous self-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 like history subjects and 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."
