Short Term Programs

If you can't spend a full semester on exchange but would still like to experience studying overseas, an intensive short-term exchange program could be a great option for you! These programs take place during the Macquarie semester breaks (in the July holidays between semester one and two, as well as during the summer holidays).  Obtaining credit for your degree is a requirement of each program.  Program offerings change periodically, so we will provide updates on available programs each semester.
