Short Programs - Summer & Winter School

Do you live outside Australia, but would love to immerse yourself in the Aussie culture while gaining credit at your home university? Why not come and study an intensive course at the University of Adelaide during your summer or winter break? 

The University of Adelaide offers a range of intensive courses during the summer and winter breaks as part of the Summer & Winter School. You can undertake a summer or winter course as a stand-alone course, requiring a four to six week stay in Adelaide, or you can combine a summer or winter course with a full semester of study in Adelaide as a Study Abroad student.  Both options give you the opportunity to earn credits towards your degree in your home country while experiencing student life at the University of Adelaide.
