Mauritius reached a transformative milestone in tertiary education with Shaping Global Futures Together, a landmark event that positioned the nation as a leading destination for international students in the region.
In close partnership with Curtin University, Curtin Mauritius hosted 20 top international recruitment agents from key parts of Asia, including India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal. This unprecedented collaboration raised awareness of Mauritius as a study destination and opened opportunities for international students to commence their higher education at Curtin Mauritius.
Curtin University, ranked in the top 1% of universities worldwide, continues to be a global leader in education. Curtin Mauritius, the only Australian branch campus in Africa, has grown its international student population by more than 300% in just five years, now welcoming students from over 28 countries. This success is rooted in one simple principle: putting the student first in everything it does.
As pioneers of private tertiary education in Mauritius, Charles Telfair Education reaffirmed its commitment to national development and long-term impact. Curtin University’s 21-year partnership with Mauritius has contributed significantly to staff development, student advancement, and meaningful research that strengthened local capacity.
Mauritius offered a unique combination of advantages: strategic location, political stability, a multicultural society, and a dedication to quality education. While the campus had already welcomed students from across Africa, this event marked a new chapter—turning focus northward to Asia, with tremendous opportunities for collaboration and growth.
Shaping Global Futures Together was more than an event—it was a step toward realizing Mauritius’ vision as an international education hub, showcasing the nation as a beacon of academic excellence, innovation, and global opportunity.
