  Cai Yi Min, China

  Diploma in Interior Design, January 2002 - November 2004

  I have found that Equator Academy of Art offers the best standard of Education in Art & Design in Penang. I am very happy with my choice of the Interior Design Programme which offers me great opportunities to further my final year Degree studies overseas countries like in United Kingdom, New Zealand & Australia; which I would be unable to do so if I were back home. I have improved my English Language skills tremendously with the use of the language in the curriculum. Besides the reasonable fees I have to pay, the easy availability of good & affordable varieties of food, cheap accommodation and conducive environment for studies in the safe, free and beautiful Penang, make my studies at Equator and my stay in this city a very memorable one. There are a lot of students from China who are looking forward to coming over here and I would strongly recommend them to Equator.

  Ivona Ong, Indonesia

  Graphic & Multimedia Design

  Studying design abroad has always been my dream and I was glad to be recommended into Equator Academy of Art, Penang by the Educationist from Medan. Penang Island, which is full of heritage and culture, is an ideal location for me as it is very near and similar to Medan. The course I am taking is also of quality with a wide range of interesting subjects, topped with affordable fees.

  Chen Wei, People’s Republic of China

  Graphic & Multimedia Design, 3 years

  As a foreign student from China, I have spent my three years at Equator Academy of Art. Studying at EAA has changed me into a much stronger person than what I was before. I have certainly learned a lot, not only knowledge in my own field of study but also enriching various perspectives of my personal life. The experiences I gained will help me to brave whatever things that will come my way in the future. Thank you to Equator, the Specialist in Art and Design.

  Roxanne Cheow Yan Tan, Malaysia

  I was a student here at Equator and I can say that the learning experience has been great! Lecturers were all very friendly, nice & helpful. Their dedication and commitment to educating the next generation is admirable and very inspiring. Even after graduation, lecturers still made themselves available to any questions in regards to my hurdles which I faced in the industry. On top of that, Equator did well in building an established connection with many relevant sectors in the industry that is tied to their programs. During graduation showcase, it was easy to transition into the industry as I had three offers from the showcase alone. Many thanks to Equator for fostering in us a better future!

  Eric Ooi, Malaysia

  Diploma in Interior Design

  From graduation day until now, almost one year of time. I’m still feeling lucky and grateful for being able to study in such a wonderful place. All class is well organised and interesting for example Basic Photography and 3ds Max class. The reason of why EC is so success until this day is because they have very kind and supportive staff range from lecturers, to marketing team and management team. One day, I will go home. Just to visit our greatest “godfather” and “godmother”, the one who put up 100% of effort to teach a child with no blood relation. Maybe they try even harder than teaching their own children. Their patience and commitment to the teaching quality inspires me wherever I go. So, here is a BIG THANK YOU and SALUTE to Equator College and all members of EC family. I hereby wishing each one of you good health and good fortunes.
