This section also lists available units of study, including Exchange units and cross-listed units of study.

Student exchange

The department strongly encourages students to spend a period of exchange at an overseas university. Most University of Sydney students who choose to spend time in Indonesia do so through the Australian Consortium for 'In-Country' Indonesian Studies (ACICIS) program. If you have questions about spending time in-country, please contact the Chair of Department.

The University’s International Exchange Program is another option. Comprehensive information is available at the Student Exchange Office Website.
