SCIENCE 3550 - International Experience III

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2024

Students are encouraged to include an overseas experience in their Sciences program of study where possible. This course allows students to gain credit for an overseas study opportunity that is of interest to them, and which compliments their program of study and future goals. These study opportunities may be offered by, but are not limited to, the University?s Preferred Third Party Providers (examples include AIM Overseas, CIS Australia, ACICS and Project Everest). Such Third Party Provider Programs provide students with an opportunity to gain hands on practical experience while immersing themselves in a new culture and allow students to build relationships with overseas organisations and potential future employers while strengthening their skill set in their area of interest. Participation in such Programs must be approved by the Faculty of Sciences, Engineering & Technology prior to commencement of any activity associated with the Program. Upon successful completion of the Program, credit will be granted as either SCIENCE 2550 or SCIENCE 3550 dependent on the program selected.

Student Feedback

The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student’s disciplinary procedures.

The University of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The University of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
