Exchange Programs

Study-Abroad Partner Schools

Want to become the best global citizen you can be? Champlain College’s Exchange Programs allow Burlington undergraduate students to spend a semester immersed in another culture as they live and study at one of our exchange institutions.

This is also an excellent opportunity to diversify our Burlington campus as we welcome students from our exchange partners for a semester or full academic year!

• New Zealand

  Auckland University of Technology (AUT)

  New Zealand is one of the safest travel destinations in the world, and Auckland is ranked third on Mercer’s global 2019 Quality of Life Survey. With a vibrant metropolitan area and breathtaking views, Auckland is a gateway to the ocean, beaches, and snow-capped mountains alike. You’ll get to know Auckland by tasting your way through the many restaurants and vineyards and by exploring both the urban and scenic attractions. Take a weekend to see the rest of the country and find the locations where the Lord of the Rings movies were filmed.

  Auckland University of Technology’s course offerings have something for most majors, with a variety of professional, liberal arts, and interdisciplinary options that provide students with an understanding of New Zealand culture and develop their global perspective. If you are interested in studying abroad for a semester, you have an option to partake in a fully supervised internship, giving you a unique experience in the New Zealand workplace.
