Exchange
Where in the world will you go?
As a student of ECU, you have the opportunity to study for one or two semesters at an exchange partner institution overseas. The study you complete at our exchange partner institution may be credited towards your ECU course, so with careful planning you should be able to graduate on time.
The good news is that you will continue to pay your tuition fees at ECU while on exchange and not the fees at the partner institution. Please note that while on exchange you will be enrolled at both ECU and your exchange institution.
We have partnerships with about 90 institutions in 35 countries around the world; and if you go on exchange for two semesters, you can even choose to study in two different countries.
Of course, you can always travel when you finish university, but studying overseas gives you a unique, challenging, and rewarding experience. Indeed, studying overseas enables you to immerse yourself in a new culture, develop lasting friendships, and get a new perspective on life. It is also an excellent opportunity for you to challenge yourself, broaden your horizons and enhance your employability.
