International Studies

Description

The International Studies degree program offers streams in Asian Studies, Development Studies, European Studies, Globalisation, International Business, International Relations and Languages Studies. All streams provide a thorough preparation for further study and employment in areas vital to Australia's increasing participation in the international arena.

Students are offered a place in the degree program and choose their preferred stream on enrolment. All streams include a one-year international exchange, during third and/or fourth year, for students who have made satisfactory progress towards the degree in their first and second years of study. To be eligible for exchange, students must meet UNSW International criteria. For details see: Global Education and Student Exchange Prospectus. The Faculty provides a contribution towards the expenses involved.
