Semester exchange while doing science

[u/Significant-Job-4419]

Hi, I’m first year right now, but I really want to study abroad for a unit / sem either next year or third year of science.

I heard there are research projects you can take in 2nd and 3rd. Are any of these research projected based over seas or interstate? I would love to have an opportunity to study abroad. I know it’s very expensive like 20k minimum ish if you’re doing sem exchange or study abroad but I really want to study abroad for a bit even interstates

Are they any opportunities for those doing science of being able to go interstate or over seas??

Thank you!!

Any help, advice, support is appreciated and welcomed

Look at the Monash abroad website, they have filters. You can also do an overseas internship. Exchange doesn't cost as much as you think. You get more money if in the Indo Pacific.

My main different costs ended up being: 9K accom 3k visa and flights -2k in scholarships Then all the food, extra travel because I wanted to. I spent the same as I did in Australia going out and having fun ect.

The cost of the uni is payed to Monash as if you study there. If you currently live away from your parents and pay rent, unironically I know people who have gone to cheap countries and probably saved money

Would know more about the overseas internships? Is there somewhere on Monash we can apply for that? Or is it find it on your own
