Summer Down Under offers a unique, exciting opportunity for teens to participate in summer programs in Australia. From exploring the Great Barrier Reef to studying a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) topic at one of the country’s colleges or universities, there’s a program to suit every interest.
Students seeking academic enrichment can study abroad at a world-renowned university like University of Sydney or University of Melbourne — or participate in a summer high school session. These programs allow you to experience a different educational system while earning college credits for their future degrees. Interested in a career in medicine? Want to improve your language fluency? Curious about global entrepreneurship? There’s a summer program in Australia for you.
Australia is as land of stunning beauty and adventure. Summer programs can take you on hikes through the Outback, teach you about the rich biodiversity of the country’s eastern coastline, invite participation in wildlife conservation efforts in the bushland, coastal, and marine ecosystems around Sydney, and more. Or tour New Zealand, Australia, and Fiji and try Zorbing, waterfall rafting, alpine trekking, boomerang throwing, and more.
The Land Down Under has a rich, diverse culture. Summer programs can introduce you to Aboriginal traditions, colonial history, and modern Australian life. Attend traditional ceremonies, learn about Aboriginal art, and try Australian cuisine.
