Program Overview

The Short-term International Study Experience (STISE) is offered by Australian Catholic University's (ACU) Faculty of Health Sciences. This program provides clinical and professional practice placements or community engagement activities around the world, facilitated through overseas partners.

Program Benefits

An international experience enables students to:

• Contribute to the common good
• Gain hands-on experience while completing a clinical experience, professional placement, or community engagement activity that counts towards their degree
• Add a global perspective to their degree and enhance their career prospects
• Learn about new cultures and new approaches to health and healthcare

Program Details

Most STISEs are offered in the final years of study. Some STISEs are financially supported by the New Colombo Plan (NCP) Mobility Program, offered by the Australian Government for eligible students. Successful NCP grant recipients who complete an NCP-funded program will receive an NCP Plan Certificate of Attainment and become part of the NCP Alumni Network.
