i'm going to Perth to take the course called "Master of Applied Design and Art" at Curtin University.
more info on the course:-
This course aims to broaden professional and vocational design skills and knowledge by engaging the student in professional design discourse and the undertaking of a design project, underpinned by design research methods and theory. Examples include live, or virtual exhibition, design schemas and models supported by a report, as well as a more conventional written dissertation. The course includes a combination of academically directed and individually inspired work, group activities and discussion.
the prerequisite to enter is a Bachelor degree in any discipline and i didn't take any interview or submit any portfolio.
i asked the coordinator what core units i have to enrol in - hope to see his reply on Monday.

my bags are packed and i've written a postcard to my parents and grandma.
a postcard from home - how funny. but i feel better after giving it to them.
some friends are sending me off at the airport although i'm flying at this early. /touched
and this is the google map of where i'll be staying - Guild House, Jackson Rd Apartments.
It looks like a really interesting course! I hadn't realised that it's a Masters Program. I think I'd consider it in future after I save up more money. :D
