As an ISEP student, you can build your own program by choosing your courses from a variety of fields. Macquarie University was founded in 1964. Equipped to assist its students for success in today’s fast-changing, highly competitive global society, the focus at Macquarie University is on the student. The aim is to provide the student with a flexible academic program that suits their needs. For our Study Abroad and Exchange students they have developed a comprehensive semester program, which combines a quality Australian academic experience with an extensive social and cultural program.
Location
Macquarie's spacious parkland campus is just 35 minutes from the heart of Australia's largest, most cosmopolitan city. Located in Sydney's leafy northern suburbs, adjacent to Australia's largest high technology precinct, the university is set in beautifully landscaped, rolling parklands, surrounding Australia's largest sculpture park.
Program Dates
Please note that this site observes the Southern Hemisphere academic calendar. If you want to study for a full-year in the southern hemisphere, consider starting your program at the beginning of their academic year in February or March. Some institutions offer annual rather than semester courses. For southern hemisphere programs, ISEP benefits do apply during the recess between semesters (June - July), whereas they do not apply between the end of one academic year and the beginning of a new academic year (December to February/March).
