Broaden your horizons, make lasting connections, and best of all, see what the world has to offer without stalling or compromising the quality of your education.  

A study abroad semester at Bond University gives students the opportunity to seamlessly blend sun, surf and the laidback Australian lifestyle with an internationally recognised, award-winning student experience. Bond students receive personalised attention and boundless opportunities from day one of their studies, and learn from world-class academics who are experts in their respective fields. Plus, with the beach right around the corner, and a welcoming student cohort made up of over 90 nationalities, you’ll forever cherish the time you spend both in and outside of the classroom.

International student exchange

International or inbound student exchange differs from our Study Abroad Program as it is run through a formal agreement between Bond University and your institution back at home. As a result of this partnership, you will continue to pay your tuition fees to your home university, rather than to Bond University. You will have a strong variety of subjects at Bond to pick from that should align with prerequisite or elective subjects and require pre-approval at your current university.

Our exchange programs are:

  • CRICOS course code 108517G | Exchange Program – Undergraduate BU-56020
  • CRICOS course code 108518F | Exchange Program – Postgraduate BU-56021

When I came across Bond University’s website, I realised this university had everything I wanted. It's well known for its academics, close to the beach and very international. I still can’t believe that Bond is a real university. The campus is beautiful, people here are active and energetic, and the classes are fun, interesting and dynamic.
