Six 国产探花 students were named official at a special event last month.
Master of Educational Leadership student Quoc Duy Tran, is one of two 国产探花 Ambassadors from Vietnam.
鈥淎s an ambassador, I will be able to create strong connections with the Vietnamese mass media to help Vietnamese youth learn more about Brisbane,鈥� Mr Tran said.
The Brisbane Marketing Study Brisbane initiative selected the students who were officially announced on March 5 by former Lord Mayor Campbell Newman.
鈥淪tudent Ambassadors play an important role in boosting Brisbane鈥檚 international reputation as a vibrant and multicultural world-class city,鈥� Cr Newman said.
Mr Tran said the role would offer him the chance to speak to current and prospective students about university life, providing insight in to what they can expect from studying in Brisbane.
The ambassadors make a great contribution in advancing Brisbane as a city with world-class educational opportunities, Cr Newman said.
Now in its fourth year, Brisbane City Council recognises the event as the city鈥檚 official welcome event for new international students.
鈥淭he Ambassador program appealed to me because it鈥檚 another way for me to help improve student life in Brisbane,鈥� Mr Tran said.
The Ambassador program helps Brisbane create strong long term global connections, and acknowledges international students as global advocates for the city, Brisbane Marketing鈥檚 CEO John Aitken said.
