There will be general information sessions held during Open Day, where you can learn about SAE's unique programs, career pathways, learning outcomes, internships and admissions information and to discover how SAE's students are gaining the competitive edge when entering their chosen industry.

Holding an unwavering conviction that virtual reality is going to fundamentally transform our world and augment ‘virtually’ every aspect of our lives, Moratti is one of Australia’s leading VR advocates.
"I am thrilled to be taking part in the SAE Open Day," he shares.
