Olivier LavigilanteRegistered Nurse

Having friends who were studying in Tasmania and enjoying the lifestyle is how Olivier from Mauritius came to find out about studying at UTAS.

“The accelerated (fast-track) Bachelor of Nursing program offered by UTAS meant that I could complete my qualification and start working in a job I really enjoy within 2 years. The high standard of education and services provided by the course and the uni was as good as, or even better in my opinion, than what was being offered on the mainland”.

Olivier, who graduated in 2007 is now enrolled in a Graduate Diploma of Nursing whilst also working as a registered nurse for Mental Health Services in Tasmania.

“I would recommend UTAS to others as being a small community and being able to interact easily with peers and lecturers, it provides a great support network both in relation to studies and also in making some great friends. The peaceful and healthy life style of Tasmania is a great helping factor to perform your best at uni, and the lower cost of living is an added bonus!”
