Undergraduate & postgraduate students
If you're an undergraduate or taught postgraduate student, you may be able to undertake one or two semesters of study here in the School of Social Sciences as part of a Study Abroad agreement with your home institution.

Research students
If you're a research student enrolled at a partner institution, you may be able to spend a period of time in the School of Social Sciences working with an academic supervisor on the UNSW Practicum Exchange Program.
If you're enrolled as a research student at an institution we're not partnered with, you may still be able to study in the School of Social Sciences, through the UNSW International Visiting Research Students Program.
