Advertising Studies in Australia

RMIT, named best advertising school in AustraliaThe study of advertising can be a fascinating and rewarding pursuit, and now you can further enhance your educational experience by participating in a study abroad or student exchange program in the beautiful country of Australia.  Australia is a one-of-a-kind and extremely diverse country in every way—its population, culture, climate, history and geography.  Being a multiracial and multicultural nation, the food, lifestyle, traditions and celebrations are as varied as the country’s many landscapes, from beaches to deserts to pristine forest land, of which much remains untouched to this day.  With over 7.6 million square kilometers of land space, Australia is the sixth-largest country in the world by total area—area that is shared by its 22.7 million inhabitants.  Sydney is the largest and most well-known city in Australia, while Canberra is the country’s official capital.

Advertising Education in Australia

Advertising is a field of study offered either alone or in conjunction with other business disciplines by the majority of Australia’s major colleges and universities.  One of these institutions is the University of Canberra (UC), located in the nation’s capital.  Here students are exposed to a professional faculty, numerous learning resources, hands-on experience and detailed course modules, collectively designed to give them a broad-based advertising education.
 
The undergraduate advertising program at UC provides an in-depth analysis of advertising using both academic and professional sources throughout the world.  The courses help to familiarize students with the primary aspects of the advertising industry, including research, strategy, client management, media, creative services and production.  The course modules are carefully designed and taught by dedicated professionals with a broad spectrum of advertising experience who aim to give students the theoretical knowledge and practical skills they need to compete and succeed professionally in the field following graduation.
 
The students at UC develop projects and work with real clients to produce thorough advertising campaigns and enhance their insight into the industry through workshops and internship programs.  The Bachelor of Advertising degree program at UC spans a mere 3 years (as opposed to 4 or 5 years in the U.S.) and international students are encouraged to apply.

Why Study Abroad in Australia

Although the quality of education you’ll receive  while studying in Australia is reason enough to choose the country as your study abroad destination, there are also many other reasons to consider the country for this purpose.
 
Australia, the smallest continent on the world and the world’s largest island, boasts a population of roughly 22 million, one that is made up people from over 90 different countries around the world.  This multicultural presence reflects the influence of many different cultures and a society that is always very welcoming to international students studying abroad.
 
Also worthy of mention is the low cost of living in Australia—much more affordable than in other English-speaking countries like the U.S. and UK0—and the affordable tuition rates, freeing up more money for you to enjoy the country when not busy with your classroom studies.
 
Australia is home to a number of natural and manmade sights and attractions to explore, and an almost unbelievable number of amenities, including sporting venues, great shopping centers, affordable and reliable public transport, cafes, nightclubs and restaurants, offering dishes from a wide range of national and international cuisines.
 
In summary, Australia is a paradise-like locale for your study abroad program, and will provide you with a truly genuine experience and a much needed change of pace.  From the wonderful sights to the pleasant climate to the warm and friendly people, the only problem with studying in Australia is that, once there, you may never want to leave.
