Master of Engineering in Fire
Engineering (MEFE)

Judith SchulzA trip to New Zealand as a tourist opened Judith’s mind to the attractions of studying here.

Judith recently completed her Masters, in which she investigated and measured the flow of hot gases through door openings.

“I really wanted to study engineering in New Zealand and I liked the surroundings of the South Island best. I might come back to do
my PhD here too.”

“There’s a lot more contact here between lecturers and students than I’m used to. There’s also internal assessment that spreads the workload through the year, which I didn’t have in Germany. I’ve had lots of different new challenges. I’ve done a degree in a different language, met a lot of really nice people, made new friends and had a lot of support along the way. It’s been great.”
