The Language Centre at the University of Newcastle is a great environment for study. It’s provided me with a good opportunity to interact with lots of people from different backgrounds, both Australian and International, and I’ve made heaps of new friends.

We offer a wide range of specialised English programs for student, tourist, industry, educational institute and government groups or individuals who want to study English and experience Australian culture, or gain professional development.

Study tours and custom group Programs We have been offering customised English language programs to international students

and client groups since 1989. We offer short study tours or customised programs to groups wishing to combine English studies with tourist activities or Business English. We can design programs to suit your requirements combined with your preferred choice of accommodation.

Study abroad

Our study abroad program allows students enrolled in overseas institutions to study at the University of Newcastle and receive credit for these studies at their home institutions. The program typically consists of 2 stages. First students complete 15-20 weeks of ELICOS and then go on to complete a semester of undergraduate study at the University of Newcastle.

Short integrated Programs

Our short integrated programs cater for overseas students who opt to study a short course during their university’s summer or winter holidays. It allows individual students or groups to join our regular ELICOS classes for periods of 3-5 weeks. During this time students have access to all the facilities at the university and opportunities to participate in the student experience programs offered at that time.
