ARJUN XAVIER SPEAKS: As a kid, the best part of getting a new toy would be to take it apart and find out how it worked. The challenge of finding creative solutions to practical problems intrigued me to further my interests as an engineer. I chose RMIT for its international industry recognition and for the ability to progress from TAFE to University.

ARJUN XAVIER SPEAKS: Once I completed my diploma I had a direct pathway into the third year of an Electronics and Communications Engineering degree. I’ve worked on some challenging projects that of could be used in the next generation of electronics, such as helping the disabled to interact with appliances by only using their mind. Having the ability to face difficult tasks with absolute confidence and precision will set me up to become a future leader in engineering.
