Study Internationally
So, you're learning a new language, or you're interested in
discovering other cultures. You've got a knack for travel, or maybe
it's your first time leaving home. You've already explored the realms
past your own backyard, or the call of an exciting adventure rings in
your mind. Either way - an International Exchange is a great opportunity for you
to see the world and have the experience of a lifetime.
Lakehead University has partnerships with universities all over the world, including France, Sweden, Finland, Germany - even Australia to name a few! Through an International Exchange Program at Lakehead, you'll have the chance to live in one of these countries for up to a full year while continuing your university studies.
Every year, a lucky group of Lakehead students take part in an exchange opportunity. Maybe you'll be next! Here's some reasons why you should plan to take part in an exchange:

Every year, a lucky group of Lakehead students take part in an exchange opportunity. Maybe you'll be next! Here's some reasons why you should plan to take part in an exchange:
- Broaden your learning and acquire new knowledge in a cultural environment different from your own
- Meet new and interesting people - and make friendships that can last a lifetime.
- Learn about different cultures and gain a global "perspective" that can enhance your marketability
- Give yourself a competitive edge when finding employment after graduation!
Only speak English? No problem! Many of the host institutions offer courses and programs in English and go out of their way to make Canadian students feel welcomed and supported during their grand adventure.
Here's what some recent students had to say about their experiences abroad:

"Studying in Australia was the best decision I have ever made in my life! I saw some of the most beautiful places on Earth, made amazing friends and learned about different cultures. I only wish I had been able to stay longer." |
|
"The opportunity to study in France has been the most eye-opening, adventuresome, and memorable year of my life. Within days of arriving in the most picturesque and lively city that is Grenoble, I met some amazing new friends. During my time away, I learned so much about myself and gained lasting confidence and independence." |

"I got everything I expected out of my exchange and more. My exchange opportunity allowed me time to travel
throughout Sweden and other countries in Europe. I recommend to everyone who has even thought
about an exchange to follow through and just do it. The opportunity
is unique and may never come up again!" |
