Our Student Exchange Programme, which provides students with the opportunity to study in Europe, Canada, USA, Mexico or Australia, is open to students in their second year of a Bachelor’s degree.

You’ll pay for your airfare, accommodation and living expenses while you’re away, but the tuition fees you’ve paid to Unitec will cover the cost of your tuition at one of our partner institutions at your chosen destination.

Your ticket to amazing places and life-changing experiences

This is a tremendous opportunity to broaden your horizons, see more of the world and do something many can only dream about.

As an international student, you not only have the chance to experience life in New Zealand, but you could spend your second or third year abroad immersing yourself in a culture, learning another new language and exploring famous cities and exciting landscapes.

Our partner institutions

Just as we have a legal responsibility to look after you while you’re studying at Unitec, our partner institutions are bound by the same code of care. We’ll make sure you’re well prepared for your trip with the right documents insurance, and our partner institutions will ensure you’re enrolled in the right courses and have everything you need to continue your study success overseas.

Studying abroad looks great on your CV too

Choosing to study abroad demonstrates experience, independence and maturity. It helps you merge your academic journey with an unforgettable adventure.

You get to experience new styles of teaching, enhance your network and personal growth, build invaluable relationships with people from all over the world and impress future employers.
