Academic benefits

What are your academic goals for exchange?

Would studying in a specific location benefit your degree?  Language students can dramatically improve their language skills - study can be underaken in Japan, Italy, France, Germany, Spain/Chile, or China.

Would studying at a specific university benefit your degree? Some of our partner universities are specialist universities, while others offer a broad range of programs.

*Make sure that your chosen university has programs for which you can get faculty approval (and thus credit towards your Adelaide course)
