Study Abroad & Student Exchange

The University has formal links with many of the world's leading universities. Our global network of partner institutions covers research collaboration, joint teaching projects and staff and student exchanges across 37 countries in Europe, North America and Asia.

The exchange program enables students to complete a portion of their degree program overseas and have the results credited towards their Sydney enrolment. The program is open to full-time undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Many of our exchange partners may offer tuition in languages other than English, giving students studying a language in their degree an opportunity to develop these skills whilst on exchange.

Every year, hundreds of students from around the world are welcomed to the University of Sydney under the Study Abroad and Student Exchange programs.

These programs allow you to complete a semester or a year of your degree at the University of Sydney. Most courses are open to undergraduate and postgraduate students. Depending on your home University's grading requirements, you may also be able to have the results obtained at the University of Sydney credited towards your degree back home. A scheme administered by the International Student Office which allows international students to take units of study at the University of Sydney, but not towards an award program. In most cases the units of study taken here are credited towards an award at their home institution.
