📚 Studying isn’t just about books — it’s about learning from the world around!
The UniSC double degree is an experience I’ll never forget. While it’s rainy and grey in Coburg, I’m studying under 🌴 palm trees and enjoying 🌅 sunsets post-lectures.

Here’s what I get to enjoy beyond the classroom:
🏖️ Beautiful beaches just minutes away.
🏞️ National parks all around for hiking, wildlife spotting, and breathing in fresh air.
🚆 Quick train ride to Brisbane for city vibes.
🤗 Friendly Aussie locals.

With UniSC’s double degree, I’m not just studying abroad — I’m building a 🌍 global identity and having an amazing time doing it!

Did you know that it’s possible to earn a Management degree from UniSC Australia 🇦🇺while completing your Financial Management degree at Coburg without extending your studies? I chose the double degree program because I didn’t want to pick just one path. Double degrees mean double the possibilities and double the adventure.

Studying at UniSC has been a unique experience for me:
• I only have two classes per week.
• My grades come from assignments rather than formal “sit-down” exams.
• I have access to a fantastic online library and LinkedIn Learning.
• There’s a strong focus on sustainability and real-world relevance.

The atmosphere on campus is so different from what I was used to in Germany. I can walk into class with a coffee, call my professors by their first name, and enjoy a relaxed learning environment. Coburg gives me a structured understanding of Finance. UniSC’s Management course inspires me to think bigger. And I love learning both.🇦🇺🇩🇪
