Study Abroad
Spending a semester or two studying and living in another culture is a great experience and a way to add extra values to your qualifications. When you enter the graduate job market it is the 'other things' on your resume that will help you to stand out.
The University of Sydney Business School, in association with its Study Abroad partners, offers a range of exciting opportunities for its students to travel and study overseas.
Below is a list of the current Study Abroad programs on offer through the Business School.
Student Exchange
The University of Sydney Business School believes that there is more to an education than lecture theatres and exams. That is why the Business School is actively involved in assisting students who wish to participate in Student Exchange programs.
When you enter the graduate job market it is the 'other things' on your resume that will help you to stand out. Student Exchange programs can help you develop key skills, such as cross-cultural understanding, flexibility and independence - skills that are highly valued in today's competitive job market.
Below, you will find information for Sydney students wishing to study overseas on Outbound Exchange. International students wishing to undertake study at the University of Sydney (Inbound
Exchange) can find relevant information under the Study at Sydney tab above.
If you're into meeting new people, making great connections, exploring the world and want to really stand out from the crowd when you graduate, you should think about taking off and being part of the University of Sydney Business School Student Exchange Program.
So what are the benefits?
- Study in some of the best institutions in the world.
The Business School has partnerships with over 50 prestigious and strategic universities and business schools around the globe.
- Obtain valuable international experience before you've even graduated.
The student exchange experience will help you enhance your prospects by establishing career networking opportunities with other students, academics and professional organisations abroad. In today's highly competitive graduate market, this gives you a competitive edge.
- Gaining more than just an academic education.
The exchange program isn't all about academia. It's also a cultural exchange. Learning a new language, developing soft skills such as cross cultural appreciation, independence and the greater confidence that together have great potentials for your personal growth and future career developments.
- An experience to beat all others.
Where better to learn the subtleties of European economic markets than in Germany, France or the Netherlands? Or to understand the fiercely competitive nature of Asian financial markets by studying relevant topics in China, Singapore or Hong Kong? The Student Exchange Program offers all of these insights and experiences.
How can we help?
Scholarships
The Business School offers several scholarships each semester to support our students participation in the International Exchange Program. All students administered by the Business School are automatically assessed for these scholarships. As scholarships become available (by semester and year) you will find them on the Business School Scholarships page.
Planning support
The Business School Exchange Coordinator, located in the Student Information Office is available to help you plan your degree and to make sure that you are eligible for nomination to the program, and also plan the best sequence of studies to maximise your opportunities whilst on exchange. Due to the necessity of meeting our eligibility requirements, students should do this in their first semester.
