My lecturers gave me space to explore my thoughts and arguments, and I never felt that I shouldn’ t write about a sensitive topic or question a theory taught in class. Instead, they encouraged us to think critically and to a certain extent, there is a freedom to explore my thoughts and sharpen my critical thinking skills without the worry of censorship.
As someone in the Social Sciences, I also believe Monash Malaysia is a unique institution. We are exposed to both global and local knowledge. The active decision to decolonise our studies through diverse materials and lecturers is what I enjoyed most from my time at Monash.”
