THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE

With over 140 years of excellence in education,

the University of Adelaide is one of Australia’s

oldest and most prestigious tertiary institutions.

Since its establishment in 1874, the University has

developed a reputation for excellence in teaching,

learning and research. It is consistently ranked in

the top 1% in the world and has produced five

Nobel Prize winners. With more than 27,000

students from more than 90 countries and over

3,000 staff, the University is small enough to

provide personal interaction with teaching staff,

yet large enough to offer a broad range of

programs and student support services.

LANGUAGE FOCUS (CS-L) The Language Focus program includes one semester developing English language and

communication skills to prepare for academic study at the University of Adelaide, and one semester

studying academic courses in your chosen field.

The Pre-Enrolment English Program (PEP) is an interactive task-based course. Through active participation,

you will learn by:

Undertaking individual and group project work,

Investigating the academic culture of the University,

Making oral presentations and responding to questions on your ideas,

Developing research and academic writing skills and reporting your findings in written form,

Reading, listening and note taking,

Reflecting on, and developing action plans for personal language progress, and

Leading and participating in seminars and tutorials.

As part of your course you will use blogs and discussion boards to share ideas and learning experiences with

teachers and peers. The use of these technologies will enable you to develop your ICT and critical thinking

skills, and engage in a different way of communicating in English.

At the end of the course, you will be asked to submit a research paper and deliver an oral presentation on

your work, and complete an exam essay.

After successful completion of PEP, students will be able to enrol into a semester of coursework classes at the

University of Adelaide. Study Abroad is an academic fee-paying program for international students.

Through participating in the Study Abroad program you can:

Gain credit from your home institution,

Satisfy your degree requirements by taking courses not available at Waseda University,

Improve your language skills and cultural understanding,

Develop your self-confidence and social skills,

Build strong global networks and make new friends,

Discover new knowledge and grow your international perspective, and

Increase your employability.

ADELAIDE CITY WHY ADELAIDE?

Students can truly immerse themselves in Australian culture by studying and socialising with local and other

international students, while still earning valuable academic credit from a prestigious Australian university and

exploring some of South Australia’s best cultural landmarks. Students will be surprised how quickly they can ‘feel at

home’ in the beautiful compact city of Adelaide.

Students will be amazed by the beauty and variety of nature found in South Australia, all within short reach of

Adelaide. Lush hills to the east, white sandy beaches to the west, dusty outback to the north and rugged coastline to

the south mean that they will never tire of exploring their Australian home, even in the cooler winter months.

OUTSTANDING LOCATION

The University of Adelaide is located in the cultural heart of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. The

University’s attractive main campus is situated in the centre of Adelaide’s vibrant retail, dining and cultural district,

bordered by the Art Gallery, Museum, State Library, Festival Centre, Botanical Gardens, Central Business District and

the River Torrens—an ideal location for local and international students alike.

Known for its pleasant Mediterranean climate, thriving economy, dynamic cultural scene and relatively low cost of

living, Adelaide offers an enviable lifestyle in an environment that is ideal for study and recreation. Adelaide is one of

the most affordable mainland cities, with a cost of living up to 14% lower than Sydney and Melbourne.* It is an

attractive, friendly, safe and well‐planned city of wide streets and boulevards, squares, parklands and a mixture of

historic and modern buildings. With a population of 1.3 million, Adelaide is Australia’s fifth largest city.

*Source: Study Adelaide studyadelaide.com.

ORIENTATION Students will be provided with a comprehensive Orientation

Program including a tour of the University of Adelaide campus.

Student ID cards will be issued to students after arrival. This will

allow access to all University facilities including computer labs,

the University library and the many clubs and cafes on campus.

Student cards also provide discounts for students on public

transport, at some restaurants, the cinema and other popular

student activities.

12

ACCOMMODATION HOMESTAY (PEP STUDENTS ONLY) During their time at the English Language Centre, students may choose to stay in homestay accommodation in an

Australian family home, allowing them to experience Australian family life and culture. As in most modern societies,

Australian households vary. A homestay family does not necessarily mean a two-parent family with children. Hosts

may be single individuals, married couples, single parents with children, couples or partners with or without

children. Backgrounds vary greatly. Typically host families have an interest in sharing their own culture with others

and are eager to learn about other cultures.

The University will endeavour to match students with like-minded families (i.e. pets/no pets, like music, like sport,

smoking/non-smoking, etc.). Homestay accommodation will be located near public transport which students can

catch to and from the University. Students will have their own bedroom and will be provided with breakfast, lunch

and dinner each day.
