Important notes for International Exchange Program

Students must complete at Monash University at least 18 credit points with minimum WAM of 60% at the time of application.

It is important to understand your course structure and units you are supposed to enrol during the exchange semester (refer to Monash handbook for the unit information).

You are required to search the unit syllabus from the partner university website when preparing the study plan. If you are unable to find the detailed unit syllabus, it is advisable to consider another partner university. Your focus will be searching for the possible equivalent units instead of the courses offered at the partner university. A detailed unit syllabus should include unit description, learning objectives, learning outcomes, assessment required, credit point, number of contact hours per week/ semester, weekly topics, and required reading/ textbook(s).

If you are interested in the exchange program to University of Warwick, please refer to the list of unit equivalency for University of Warwick.

Students are not able to choose Psychology core unit during exchange program as to adhere to APAC accreditation for the programme. Students participating in an exchange are therefore encouraged to select only elective and stream units.

For more information, please refer to this Monash website.

After you have submitted your application on Monash Abroad Portal, your application will go through 2 rounds of assessments - Monash Abroad and School assessments. When it comes to the school assessment, the school will assess the proposed units in your study plan if the units are at least 80% similar to the Monash units to be considered as equivalent.

Please refer to the Monash Abroad website for the detailed application process.

If you have any questions or need further clarifications, please contact the Psychology EMO via Monash Malaysia Connect - Ask Mira.
