An education at La Trobe is not only for the benefit of Australia, but also for the world.

Mr Stephen Cantwell

Course of study:
Bachelor of Agricultural Science 2015
Bachelor of International Development 2015
My name is Stephen Cantwell and my career aspirations are to work within International Development for AUS AID or an NGO with an agriculture and rural development focus.
I’m currently studying a Bachelor of Agriculture Science/Bachelor of International Development. The course allows me to experience a range of academic fields that contribute to my desired ambitions.
I wanted to become a student ambassador because I wanted to give something back to the university that has given me so much joy, and share my passion for the university with others.
The best advice I can give is to approach everything with an open mind. You may even surprise yourself how La Trobe can enter you into a new academic world. Apart from beautiful surroundings, dedicated lecturers and tutors and great students, La Trobe gives the impression that our education is for the benefit of a fair and just Australia and world.
We are committed to providing quality teaching, informed by research across all our disciplines and maintaining and enhancing our outstanding international research reputation.
