Why study overseas?

Are you dreaming of a white Christmas in Canada? Or is hitting the surf beaches of Hawaii more your thing? Maybe you'd prefer to cycle through the picturesque streets of Utrecht on your way to university? With an Education Abroad program, the choices are endless.

Spend a few weeks, a trimester or even a year studying overseas while working towards your degree, and experience all that your Deakin degree can offer!

Studying overseas can be an enriching, life-changing experience, where you can gain in-depth knowledge and experience of another culture while learning more about your area of study through a new and exciting lens.

As an Exchange or Study Abroad student you will:

  • prepare for the global employment market - gain a competitive edge through your international experience
  • develop personally - learn and grow, embrace new cultures and challenge your beliefs
  • gain academically - access a new and diverse set of subject choices
  • learn or improve another language - learn as much outside the classroom as within
  • travel and have fun - see the world, explore amazing places and make a worldwide network of friends from many different backgrounds.
