Student Exchange Programs and Scholarships
The University of Saskatchewan, Canada
A formal exchange agreement has been established between The University of Queensland and The University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Canada. Under this agreement a limited number of students (initially two) who have successfully completed the prescribed first year of the BScApp(HMS) course at this University are permitted to complete the second year of their program at The University of Saskatchewan by undertaking comparable courses offered within their College of Physical Education. In return, an equal number of students from the College of Physical Education come to Brisbane in the middle of each year to complete the second year of their program at UQ.
Application forms for this exchange are distributed early in the first semester. Offers for the two places are based on academic performance (GPA) across Semester 1 Year 1 BScApp(HMS) courses. For further information see visiting professor from the University of Saskatchewan, Professor Don Bailey.
Students chosen for the exchange will also receive a $1000 stipend to be used towards flight and accommodation expenses.
