I did my bachelor of IT/Networking from MIT. I really had great time at this institute. I will highly recommend all future students to study at MIT.

So angry and disappointed for Deakin. The teacher encourages students to finish assignment by paying someone for writing it!!! That's understandable. The teacher was so rude and irresponsible. My friend done his assignment by himself,the teacher gave a zero for him!!!! The teacher only gave a general answer for why he got zero, no specific reason or detail, my friend doesn't even know how to improve. And the teacher threatened him if he said one more word, he will be failed this subject right now!!! That's not fire!

Melbourne Institute of Technology is one of the best places to study, if you want to stay around Melbourne CBD. It is pretty lenient for those who want to study and work at the same time. I am about to graduate and it has been one of the best institute I've came across in my life. Only thing that it requires is you should study by yourself beside attending classes. I'd definitely recommend it to everyone.

I didn't know this place existed till last year. I'm currently studying my Bachelor of Networking here and It's been a good run so far. Friendly staff and teachers. If you're looking to smash out your degree in 2 years flat this is the place to go.
