Study in the Snow

Want to escape the Australian summer heat and study overseas where it’s cool – icy cool?!

Look no further than our CQUGlobal Outbound overseas study winter programs in Japan or New York!

Experience the snow life in one of these incredible locations, while immersing yourself in local culture, gaining global understanding and in some cases, even earning credit towards your degree. Don’t forget, overseas study programs will really diversify your resume and help you to stand out in a pool of applicants.

If you’re leaning towards a winter program in Japan, you can undertake a winter program at Toyo University, Tokyo between 18 – 30 January 2019.  Your Japanese adventure will be filled with field trips (to the snow of course) and cultural classes, workshops and activities. To read more about the program, download the Winter Program Brochure.

Toyo will individually tailor programs to meet your requirements. If you have any questions and/or requests, please contact Toyo University at mltsp@toyo.jp.

The application deadline for this winter program is Monday, 15 October 2018 so be sure to apply today

Or, perhaps the magic of winter in New York is more your style. In the New York Winter Program with Buffalo State University from 1 – 22 January 2019, students will study the history and culture of the Buffalo- Niagara Region through participation in a two-week course at SUNY Buffalo State.

The course includes classroom lessons as well as exciting off-campus educational, social, and cultural excursions. After completing the two-week course, students will be accompanied by staff from SUNY Buffalo State for a three-night ski trip to Holiday Valley followed by three nights of exploring New York City’s most iconic sites.

Bachelor of Arts students may be eligible to receive elective credit.

Want to study overseas?

Do you want to study overseas for a year, term or even just a short while at one of our Partner Universities, or any university in the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) network?

The CQUGlobal Outbound Exchange Program allows you to study for a term or academic year at one of our partner institutions while remaining enrolled at CQUniversity. In most cases you will be able to combine study and travel without extending the total duration of your study! The CQUGlobal team also connects you with special overseas programs – like cultural tours!

Sometimes, you can even gain credit for the courses you study and transfer these credits back to your CQUniversity program. Your chosen courses will need to be approved by CQUniversity before you go.

Why should you study overseas?

An exchange or cultural tour can be a life-changing experience and will not only help you develop your intercultural intelligence and communication skills, but also give you a competitive edge in the global job market when you graduate.

It will give you the opportunity to;

  • Undertake studies in unique and exciting courses not offered at CQUniversity.
  • Forge international links and develop a global network of contacts for your professional future as you make life-long friends with people from other parts of the world.
  • Learn more about yourself and your capabilities while you gain self-confidence.
  • Immerse yourself in a new culture
  • Improve your foreign language skills or learn a new language.
