Same aviation degree: Two wonderful outcomes |
|
While Georgia Ho and Stacy Huang might be completing the sameBachelor of Aviation (Pilot), their journeys to UniSA and choosing a career in the skies were different. For Georgia, 23, from Hong Kong, the goal was always to become a pilot. However, how she would get there was a decision she took some time to make, having thought about the non-educational pathways available to achieve her dream.
Meanwhile, Stacy, 22, from Taiwan, was unsure whether she would have the skills and diligence required to successfully embark on tertiary education. Nonetheless, despite their individual hesitations, the two have clearly outlined their future aspirations with UniSA helping champion their endeavours. |
