“With my Shari’a Law (Islamic law) background, undertaking a graduate degree in law in Australia is the best way to widen my intellectual horizon and to engage myself in a mutually stimulating dialogue of different legal cultures. A graduate degree in Melbourne is an enjoyable opportunity to develop our perspective, expand our horizon as well as enrich our networking. More than a stimulating factor, the law degree is an inspiration to start a lot of things in the future.”
