Dubai, in addition to our two major campuses in Western Australia,\u201d Professor Terry said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is also a significant milestone for Mauritius as it positions itself as an important education hub for the African and Indian Ocean region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe opening of Curtin Mauritius builds on a successful 14-year partnership with Charles Telfair Institute and will ensure thousands more students from the region continue to benefit by furthering their education at the tertiary level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the official opening on May 3, Curtin had partnered with Charles
