USP Vice Chancellor and President Professor Pal Ahluwalia has arrived in Samoa where he will be based at the USP Campus in Apia.
In August last year, Professor Ahluwalia was appointed to a three-year term by the USP Council.
He says everybody has been so wonderful and understanding.
Professor Ahluwalia adds there is no feeling like being back home in the Pacific.
In February last year, the Fijian government stated that it deported Professor Ahluwalia and his partner Sandra Price following continuous breaches by both individuals of the Immigration Act.
It had stated that under Section 13 of the Immigration Act 2003, no foreigner is permitted to conduct themselves in a manner prejudicial to the peace, defence, public safety, public order, public morality, public health, security, or good government of Fiji.
Professor Ahluwalia had told fijivillage last year that he was never told that he had breached the Immigration Act until they were deported.
He said that it was a premeditated attempt to remove him as Vice-Chancellor after he raised allegations of corruption at USP.
