Mass Communications and Public Relations student
At Curtin Malaysia, I have not only gained in terms of an education, but also life skills like dealing with people and friends. It has been quite a journey for me, with bittersweet memories, but it has been largely a journey of self-discovery and one I’ll cherish always.
Araf Bin Tarek
Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) graduate
It might seem odd that I’m working in sales when my course at Curtin Malaysia was in accounting, but the course was not all about accounting. It was quite holistic, with non-accounting units that also prepared for work in the corporate world. I have the opportunity to learn a different aspect of life in Malaysia. I have come to really love this country and I feel right at home here.

Coming from West Papua, my time at Curtin Malaysia has been a blast. I’ve made friends from Malaysia and beyond, enjoyed cool lectures, and engaged in various campus activities that enhance learning beyond the classroom. It’s been a fantastic experience!
