ECU aspires to become a leader in international student education and to be recognised for our international enterprise. Inbound students experience study and life in Australia and simultaneously enrich the classroom with cultural diversity. Concurrently, domestic students who are unable to undertake an Outbound Learning Abroad experience benefit by gaining insight into how other countries, peoples and cultures operate.
Inbound Learning Abroad opportunities at ECU consist of Student Exchange, Study Tours and Study Abroad. Click on the links below or visit our sharepoint page for further information.
Works on a reciprocal basis and must be supported by an official Student Exchange Agreement outlining the terms, conditions and details of the Student Exchange Program. Students participating in an inbound Student Exchange Program continue to be enrolled at, and pay their tuition fees to, their Home Institution.
A short-term program, typically 1-2 weeks, that involves customised English, academic and cultural activities.
Where a student’s home university does not have an official exchange agreement with ECU or is unable to offer the student an exchange place at ECU, students can apply to study at ECU as a study abroad student.
Customised semester length Study Abroad Programs can be developed for larger scale institution to institution partnerships. This program includes English and Academic classes alongside the award-winning Experiencing Australia Program (EAP).
The Buddy Ambassador Program supports the Tailored program. We are always recruiting for new ECU students to volunteer as Buddy Ambassadors to join the fun and welcome overseas students and join them on their Experiencing Australia Program (EAP) activities - Students won't want to miss this opportunity!
Buddy Ambassador applications for the Tokyo City Australia Program (TAP) are now open to ECU students for Semester 1, 2025. See Buddy Ambassador flyer for more information.
