– UQABROAD
Through UQ’s student exchange
program, UQ Abroad, you can study
overseas for up to one year while
gaining credit towards your UQ degree.
With over 175 exchange partners in
38 countries, UQ Abroad is an ideal way
to combine study and travel and can be
the adventure of a lifetime. Improve your
foreign language skills, broaden your
professional and academic experience,
and establish a worldwide network of
friends.
While on exchange, tuition fees at
the host university are waived and you
continue to be enrolled at and pay fees
to UQ. You can even apply for student
exchange scholarships (available
to both international and Australian
students going on exchange) to assist
with airfares, accommodation, health
insurance and living costs.

LEARNALANGUAGE
If you would like to add another skill
to your portfolio, why not learn a new
language?
The Institute of Modern Languages (IML),
a centre within the Faculty of Arts at UQ
St Lucia, offers courses in more than 25
languages, from Arabic to Vietnamese,
at beginner to advanced levels, and you
are most welcome to enrol while
studying at UQ.
IML’s flexible time schedule and well-
qualified tutors ensure that you not only
gain valuable language skills but also
receive an exciting cultural experience.
IML language courses cover all four
communication skill areas – listening,
speaking, reading and writing – in small,
friendly classes. You do not need any
formal entry requirements for IML courses
and they will not be counted towards
your degree.
IML also offers translation and
interpreting services, as well as cultural
briefings on Australian culture and
language, on a fee-for-service basis.
