"After coming to IPC, I found how important it is to communicate with other people from different countries. Studying in classes and living with other students in a hall, I experienced frustrations when trying to express our opinions clearly. Everyone is different, but we have many things in common as well. I am sure that being at IPC will give me better communication skills, which will be very useful in the future."

"IPC has got great opportunities to learn about other cultures and also meet a lot of new friends. I chose IPC because it is not really a big college so everybody here are friends. It was exactly what I had expected before I came here. Some people might disagree with my opinion, but everything depends on how you take action. The more action you decide to take, the more experiences we can gain. I strongly believe IPC has got this environment."

Mika Miyazaki, Japan

"Studying at IPC is a great opportunity for everyone. I have learnt so many good and bad things during my three years at IPC. It has been an opportunity to challenge myself. Learning and adjusting myself in order to suit the surroundings has been very important at the same time. I also get a chance to learn how to understand other people, as well as understand myself and how to make nice friends at IPC. "

"IPC provides a well balanced program which encompasses and develops an extensive variety of skills needed in an international cooperative market. Plato once said "The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life." Having graduated from the BIS and MIS, I know for a fact that my future success in life will be determined by the encouragement and support of lecturers, skills and knowledge that I have gained from IPC. "

Tim Phillips, New Zealand

"I really enjoy life in New Zealand. I chose IPC for its culturally diverse, melting-pot environment and its academic program. All of my lecturers are helping me to improve more and more every day. Other IPC staff including the dining hall staff have been very friendly and helpful. When I first arrived at IPC, I was scared of the situation in which many different nationalities are living in the same place together. I knew that it would be a real challenge for me to make new friends and share my culture with others. However, today I am proud of all my accomplishments and I also have learnt more about other cultures and lifestyles which has opened my mind for other ways of living."
