The many sides of the international student experience
Manage episode 337244499 series 3380407
International education has many sides; to some, it is a valuable sector, to others, an additional policy concern. But to the thousands of students who come to Australian universities, it is a goal to pursue - beset unfortunately by bias and obfuscation. This episode, we spoke to Khanh Tran - a law student at the University of Sydney, and an international student ambassador for the City of Sydney - about his experience as an international student. We explore some of the ways in which international students navigate the unexpected social and administrative hurdles presented by life in Australia, the organisations and collectives which work to promote their interests, and the overall perceptions we still crucially need to shake. Footnotes is a podcast created by the Sydney University Law Society; for students, by students, and available wherever you get your podcasts.
