Study overseas

Study overseas

Overseas study gives you the opportunity to travel while gaining degree credits, providing opportunities for personal growth while improving your employment options.

It also looks great on a résumé and may give you a competitive edge in a tight employment market.

Study options vary from two weeks to two semesters and there's a wide range of different opportunities.

Current Travel Restrictions

Applications for international travel approval are assessed on a case-by-case basis, and must meet conditions set out on the ECU Travel page.

Study Tours & International Placements

From as little as one week, study tours and international placements are a great way to have an international experience if a full semester of exchange is not for you.

Join a group of your ECU classmates in a study tour international placement, learn in another country and develop your cultural communication skills.

With opportunities often open to students from different Schools, where will you travel to next?

Virtual Learning Abroad

Virtual programs provide the opportunity to engage and learn on a global scale without leaving home.

From putting your skills into practice during a remote industry placement to learning a new language in online classrooms, and everything in between, there is sure to be an experience for you.

Take another step to becoming world ready and apply today.

Exchange

We have partnerships with about 90 institutions in 35 countries around the world, providing you the opportunity to study for one or two semesters. Exchange allows you to immerse your self in new cultures, develop lasting friendships and get a new perspective on life.

Study abroad

The study abroad program allows students to study at overseas non partner institutions. The point of differentiation from our exchange program is that you will be directly applying to and paying tuition fees to the overseas institution, not ECU.

Other overseas study opportunities

As well as Exchange and Study Abroad options, ECU has a range of Study Tours, Internships and Short Programs available for students to take part in.

Financial assistance

An array of financial assistance is available to ECU students taking part in overseas studies.
