Welcome University of South Australia Students

CISaustralia is proud to support the University of South Australia and their students. CISaustralia and the University signed a formal partnership agreement in 2017 and have worked closely to send qualified UniSA students abroad since 2015, on many different programs to many different locations. This partnership enables students greater access to our overseas programs and ensures they have the best possible experience abroad! We are very proud of our close and long-standing partnership with UniSA. We take great pleasure in providing high-quality customer service and in supporting both students and academic staff to develop long-term sustainable programs abroad, which are most importantly for academic credit.

January in Florence, Italy

The work place environment suited me perfectly – I was given various tasks which challenged and broadened my knowledge and acquired set of skills. I absolutely loved the local culture and adjusted quickly. Go and immerse yourself. The Irish are known for their hospitality and they’re very accommodating. I would do anything to do this all over again.

Intern in Ireland

My homestay [was the best part]. I enjoyed living with and getting to know my family, as well as immersing myself in the Spanish culture. My host mum was lovely and took great care of me. Barcelona in general [is so exciting]. There are so many things to see and do that you don’t really need to go anywhere else!

Intern in Spain

Just do it! Apart from the amazing opportunity to travel this program is beneficial for personal and professional development too. The friends and connections you make will stay with you for a lifetime.

Sports Coaching in South Africa

Definitely do it. Was up there with the best things I have done in my life. Good mix of activities that were well worth going to see. Great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends as well. Don’t hold back make the most of it, it is definitely rewarding.

July in London, England

I greatly appreciated the opportunity to study overseas [on this program]. The experience was amazing altogether… I wouldn’t have changed anything! Great amount of excursions and a very helpful tutor!

January in London, England

Excellent experience… [The on-site coordinator] went above and beyond and was so easy to deal with! [My host company] gave me a lot of responsibility which enabled me to learn a lot in a short amount of time! The experience you gain is invaluable and will be worth every cent once you are back!

Intern in Malaysia

Don’t be shy and don’t stay in your accommodation all day. Go out and explore the hidden treasures in Japan and if you’re lost, it’s okay because sometimes getting lost takes you to places that are exciting, unique and totally different to Australia. And who knows you might end up making friends and new experiences on the way!

July in Tokyo, Japan

Absolutely do it. This trip will change your life. You’ll make the best friends ever and an overseas internship looks incredible on your resume. You’ll gain experience that is invaluable and learn to be more independent, courageous and confident. I couldn’t have asked for a better placement. [I was] relied on and trusted with big on-going projects, given many opportunities for experience, growth and pieces for my portfolio. Confirmed to myself that this is the career path that I want to take and got to live in London!

Intern in England

Honestly, just do it! There is not one thing that happened that I was displeased with. The best part about my program abroad was the people that I met whilst I was there. The campus was stunning, the accommodation and food provided far exceeded my expectations, and it was located close to the tube.

January in London, England

The experience of seeing and adopting into a whole new culture with totally everything new [was the best part]. I really enjoyed exploring LA with students of the same interests studying the same course as me. I was able to make long life friends while on this trip. I really enjoyed my time studying abroad with CISaustralia. It was something really new to me.

January in Los Angeles, USA at UCLA Extension

Do it. You’ll have no regrets, it is an amazing experience. See as much as you can. Ireland is amazing.

Intern in Ireland

Do it because it is a great program where you get challenged in a variety of ways and it’s the best way to learn another language. Being able to practice my Japanese and meeting a lot of new people from different countries [was the best part].

July in Tokyo, Japan

GO!!! You won’t regret it. The whole experience was amazing!!

January in New York City, USA

Stop thinking about it, and do it. You will not regret it!! I had the best summer of my life! Just give everything a go and go in with an open mind! The best part was the fact that you meet so many amazing people from your home country and abroad. It truly is something that helps you become a better person!!
