Seek advice to help you prepare for your global experience and make the process of applying easier.
The following groups may be able to help you understand how a global study experience can connect to your studies and what your best experience options may be.
Global Experiences
Work your way through the Short-Term Experiences Apply to UQ Checklist to ensure you are preparing well.
You can email gex@uq.edu.au or watch an information session. The Internships and Global Experiences Team cannot advise on specific academic queries, these are best directed to an academic advisor in your UQ Faculty. We strongly encourage you to seek advice from your Faculty to discuss how a global experience might best complement your degree.

Talk to an academic advisor in your faculty to understand how your participation in a short-term global experience will impact on your UQ degree program.
It's important that you seek academic guidance even if you don't intend to obtain credit for participation in the experience.
As faculty staff are often very busy, we recommend that you seek advice early by organising an academic advising session well in advance.
