Global Learning Online
Participate in Deakin’s online global learning programs
Virtual global learning programs offer exciting opportunities to gain meaningful intercultural experiences during the time of COVID-19. You can become a virtual student at partner universities such as Aarhus University, Sophia University and Neoma Business School. Complete an online internship at high profile multi-national companies, or participate in social impact programs. Borders around the world are closed so we’re bringing the world to you!
You'll learn from leading international academic staff at our partner universities around the world, or in real life workplaces, all while receiving credit towards your Deakin degree.
Trimester Abroad Programs
Pick up international units from a range of complementary disciplines and develop cross-cultural awareness, while enhancing your intercultural communication skills from the comfort of your own home.
Short Term Partner Programs
Short Term Partner Programs are intensive study options that run during Deakin’s trimester breaks with the aim to progress your degree. These two to six-week programs are offered by Deakin’s partner universities and give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in an international teaching environment. Pick up a unit over Trimester 3 and study with a university in Japan, Germany, Italy or South Korea. The world is literally at your fingertips.
