Study Abroad in Australia
Why Australia?
Diverse, laid-back, and stunningly scenic, Australia is a wonderful country for World Endeavors students to learn new things and expand their worldview. Students with an interest in the outdoors will find Australia a particularly appealing destination, perfect for hiking through extraordinary parks or kicking back on the beach. At the same time, Australia’s major cities boast world-class academic, business, and artistic institutions. Australia has close ties to the Western world, but the cultures of the South Pacific, Aboriginal Australians, and the Asian countries of the Pacific Rim also contribute to this country’s unique personality. And English is spoken here, making it easy for American students to jump right in to their host university’s academic and social life.
Live in Sydney, Australia
Australia is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world, and Sydney epitomizes that diversity, with vibrant communities of immigrants from East and South Asia and Europe and students from all over the globe. Sydney is the country’s largest city and a thriving center of international business, but it has a relaxed personality that is uniquely Australian. The local residents, called Sydneysiders, can often be found outdoors, walking, running, biking, and enjoying the gorgeous views of the coast surrounding the city on every side. There’s plenty to do indoors, too. The famous Sydney Opera House and many other venues offer theater, symphonies, ballets, and operas. With world-class art museums, gorgeous botanic gardens, a huge state-of-the-art zoo, and a wealth of fun shops and restaurants, there’s never an excuse for being bored in Sydney!
