Study tours and short term programs

Study Tours

Study Tours generally take place during the summer holidays or the mid-year break and they are all accompanied by an RMIT staff member. Often they are the result of years of relationship building between RMIT and overseas companies, institutions and governments. As a result, study tours can open doors that are closed to the everyday tourist. They provide an unusual opportunity to rapidly get to know the cultural and business environment of other countries.

There are several study tour models that run within RMIT.
