‘Course content is di�erent here than home, and I think that’s partly because this is a whole other part of the world. Taking marine biology within driving distance of incredibly diverse sea life locations (ie, Kaikōura) is way di�erent than taking the same class in landlocked Indiana, USA, for instance.’

Feedback from previous Study Abroad students
Christina, Germany ‘The MAOR 165 Māori course was the most interesting class because it gave me the opportunity to learn about New Zealand’s history and culture. For me, this was one of the reasons of going abroad: learning about another culture. I recognised a lot of what I had learned on my travels throughout the country, and appreciated that.’
Richard, USA‘New Zealanders truly have a strong passion for the sustainability of the Earth. I have done four Great Walks, ice-climbed Fox Glacier, and mountain-biked around the South Island, plus I’ve done my share of kayaking, surfing, and white water rafting. I have bungy jumped the Auckland Bridge and the Ledge in Queenstown. I skydived over Wanaka, and shark cage dove in Stewart Island.’
Laura, Germany‘Through being involved with a lot of different activities and meeting people with different opinions and backgrounds, I’ve discovered how diverse UC is. I am in class with people from all over the world every day, and it makes for interesting discussions and really broadens your horizons, and gets you thinking about ideas.’
‘I made a number of genuine friends and thanks to them, I adapted to the life as an international student quickly and seldom felt lonely.’
GloriaHong Kong
Gabriel , Brazil‘There’s nowhere better than the University of Canterbury for bringing together the best professors and professionals in the field. The University has a wide range of research in construction and I decided to be part of this group of researchers.’
Hayley, USA‘The mid-semester field trip for my Ecology class was an experience I would not have been able to have at my home university. Doing field work in Arthur’s Pass was a great experience that gave me a taste of what it’s really like to do research in a natural environment.’
Zach, USA‘The professors and lecturers seem more passionate about students learning, rather than delivering everything that is required. It really seems like they take the extra step.’
