Study Abroad at the University of Melbourne and discover the real Australia. You'll be integrated with local students in your lectures and tutorials, extracurricular activities, outings and field trips. The Study Abroad program allows students to live in one of the world's most livable cities and study at a dynamic, historic campus close to the centre of town. Students are invited to enroll in classes in 10 different faculties. Many choose to take a combination of classes from their major area combined with new fields unavailable at home, such as Australian Studies, indigenous histories, cultural studies, Asian financial markets, trans-cultural mental health, etc.
As a Study Abroad student you'll have access to the latest teaching and learning resources. For example, eLearning studios are designed for collaborative work in small groups and have PCs, laptop interconnectivity and data projectors; iMedia theatres and theatrettes have lecture capture that records audio and visual content from lectures making streamed and downloadable versions of these recordings.
Then there are those spaces specifically designed for particular disciplines. The Engineering Learning Lab supports group and collaborative work. The Law moot court trains future lawyers in using technology to present their cases. Biology labs are equipped with audiovisual equipment so that microscope, video and 35mm slide images can be projected to television monitors ; and the Information Systems Interaction Design, Evaluation and Analysis (IDEA) laboratory is specially designed for conducting computer user experience tests and interaction research.
Outside the classroom, the University's beautiful grounds and gardens provide opportunities for reflection and recreation. Next-door to Melbourne's CBD, the University of Melbourne's location, you have to admit, is also a pretty big attraction. It's close to transport, fantastic cafes, arts and sports venues and accommodation. Everything is accessible! Less

Go for it! I would never change what I've done. It's a huge investment and when you consider what else you gain from this, there is no question of its value. The whole experience has changed me. I'm more confident and wiser to the world outside of the US. Australia is a very easy transition from North America. It is foreign enough to feel new and exciting, yet familiar enough to ease you into a new lifestyle. Read more
