Spring 2025 Semester Sport & Exercise Science Sydney

About the Program

Imagine taking a field trip to experience Australia’s diverse ecology and landscape for one of your environmental science courses or having full access to world-leading technology, like the Engineering Remote Laboratory where you can perform real-time experiments from anywhere and at any time. The University of Technology Sydney (UTS), a world-renowned research university with cutting-edge facilities, provides you with a comprehensive curriculum to fit your major. You’ll have access to a wide range of courses in STEM fields, and UTS’ featured programs in Data Science & Analytics and Sport & Exercise Science offer students in these disciplines a great opportunity to internationalize their degree while staying on track for graduation.

Program Structure

Enroll in 1 CEA CAPA course at the CEA CAPA Sydney Center and 3 UTS courses.  If you are participating in the Data Science & Analytics or Sport & Exercise Science Program your UTS enrollment will be distributed as following: you will select 1-2 courses from the curated course list for that respective program, and you will select your remaining UTS course(s) from the full University of Technology Sydney course list. 

UTS utilizes credit points and represent a measure of the student’s workload by subject. Most subjects at UTS are 6 credit points each, which equals 4 credits in the U.S. semester system. The CEA CAPA course is 3 credits/45 contact hours. You may earn 15 credits.

Due to differences in the Australian higher education system, there is no standard for the number of days a week a course may meet. Class meeting times vary across departments and subject areas.

The academic structure below lists a small sample of the hundreds of courses available. You will have access to introductory, intermediate and advanced courses in a wide range of courses in the fields of engineering, information technology, creative intelligence and innovation, the sciences, and much more. See below for information how to access the University of Technology Sydney website for a full list of courses.

Prior to departure, you will select your preferred courses. You will be enrolled into courses based on their availability. It is in your best interest to have multiple alternative courses approved by your home university prior to your departure due to course availabilities. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.

A transcript from the University of Minnesota is awarded upon successful completion of the program.
