Lauren Stepanovski, Bachelor of Commerce (Management and Human Resource Management)

Going on exchange has been the biggest highlight of my degree. Not only do you experience university in another country, you open yourself up to new challenges, new people and new cultures. It also builds on characteristics that employers love such as cultural awareness, leadership and confidence.

Lee Bing Tan, Bachelor of Arts (Mass Communication)

There were so many amazing things about going on exchange. I was able to live independently on campus, make lifelong friends from all over the world and got to travel around South East Asia.
