CQUniversity will be encouraging university and school students to think about incorporating an international education experience into their degree...

The CQUniversity International Exchange Fair will be held between 11am-3.30pm on Thursday, March 19 at CQUniversity Rockhampton, at building 18.

James Keane spent 5 months in Germany while studying through CQUniversity.A number of overseas education institutions will be promoting their courses as a way for students to experience study in another country, while gaining credit towards their CQUniversity degree.

CQUniversity Business student James Keane believes his recent experience studying in Germany at one of the country's top business schools was an incredible experience.

"Spending 5 months in Europe while studying at the international School of Management, Dortmund, has been an utterly incredible albeit indescribable experience.

"The exchange has allowed me to forge relationships with similarly minded business graduates, creating a network of friendships spanning each of the Earth's continents."

While overseas, James had the opportunity to travel extensively through Western and Central Europe, expanding his life experiences and cultural understanding.

James believes he has caught the infamous travel bug, with plans to spend 3 months in India later this year and a return to Europe next year after his Masters degree.

Interested students will be able to talk with James at next week's International Exchange Fair.
