Study Abroad Programs in Perth, Australia

Tropical Marine Biology at Murdoch was a great short-term program. I didn't want to commit to a full semester abroad, so just one month in Australia was perfect! The teaching staff at Murdoch was exceptional, and the 10-day field camp up in Coral Bay was worth the whole trip. It was winter in Australia, so be cautious that you will be in Perth during their rainy season!

I had a great time at Curtin! It is a beautiful campus with wonderful people all around. I did have troubles here and there, but that will always happen; the curtin staff tried to be helpful every step of the way. The course load isn't bad at all if you stay on top of it, which then gives you enough time to go on little adventures around Perth. I would highly recommend trying to meet as many people as you can and going out with them to places. Ask people who live around the area for recommendations. I would also plan to do a vacation after the semester is over to explore more of Perth and Australia. I had a phenomenal experience, and I would definitely go back and do it all over again if I could.
