Raymond Chan, Bachelor of eBusiness
"I undertook a Bachelor of eBusiness at Macquarie University because the combination of both business and information technology courses allowed for a broader view of both disciplines and greater opportunities. It provided me with communication, teamwork and leadership skills necessary for a career in IT. Since completing my degree in 2009 I decided to continue with postgraduate studies with a Masters of Information Technology and Masters of Commerce at Macquarie. I ultimately want to become an IT Consultant / Business Analyst / Project Manager when I finish my studies."
