Adventure Awaits Beyond the Classroom
Australia offers endless opportunities for exploration—and walkabouts. There’s plenty to see on a budget, like a penguin safari at St. Kilda Pier, beach-hopping in Sydney, a day trip to Nimbin, a hike around Uluru, a BBQ on 90-mile beach, or a visit to Eungella National Park to see platypus in the wild. Tour the Sydney Opera House or walk across the Sydney Harbour Bridge or learn about the grim history of Port Arthur in Tasmania.
Australia’s colleges and universities attract some of the world’s best academics, and the country’s standard of living is high, while tuition costs are much lower than in other countries. The higher education system is dynamic, constantly evolving to keep pace with an ever-changing job market to ensure graduates have the most up-to-date knowledge and skills—and a competitive edge in the global workforce.
