What are your plans after study?
To pursue my interests in tertiary-level research.
What do you find most exciting about Human Interface Technology (HIT)?
The heightened learning ability and skills development that is possible and its relevance to such a wide range of human endeavours.
Any Advice for Prospective HIT Students?
The HITLab provides a fantastic opportunity to learn from the experts in this field. Being from a non-computer studies background and a mature-age student, I found the tutorials initially a challenge, but the rewards far outweighed the effort. If you have the chance, take it.
