Study Abroad and Exchange

Outbound Student Exchange

Currently enrolled Curtin students have the opportunity to participate in the student exchange program and spend one or two semesters abroad as part of their degree. Students can choose to study at any one of Curtin’s many partner institutions across Europe, Asia and North America. Students do not receive an award from the exchange University. On successful completion of studies abroad, students receive credit towards their Curtin degree.

Inbound Study Abroad and Exchange

Curtin offers students from abroad the opportunity to undertake studies at the University. Students receive credit towards their home university degree (they do not receive a Curtin award). In order for students to be considered for the exchange program, there must be a reciprocal arrangement between Curtin and their home university. If your university does not have a reciprocal arrangement with Curtin, you can apply as a study abroad student. In both cases, you will need to contact your international adviser at your home university.
