Short term exchange

Travelling to Dubai for the global sustainability challenge 2025, was a truly amazing experience. From immersing myself into a new culture, exploring a different city and connecting with other students from Curtin’s global campuses, all while applying theoretical knowledge from my degree into real world sustainability issues.

An opportunity like this is something I would encourage every student to apply for. This incredible experience has left me with so many great lifelong memories, allowed me to grow both personally and personally as well as giving me my last unit credit to graduate!

I’ve always wanted to take my studies abroad, and take advantage of the opportunities that Curtin provides. The New Colombo Plan grant and OS-Help loan can support you. All of my flights, internal travel and accommodation expenses were paid for with this funding.
