Southern Cross University's Lismore campus is located in a subtropical area with beautiful landscape gardens and rainforest walkways. Lismore campus symbolizes what the region is known for, natural beauty and creative culture.
The university offers subjects in fields such as arts, social sciences, educational science, education, digital media, business and tourism, marine and environmental biology, engineering, health sciences, law, music and creative studies. The campus is just five minutes from Downtown Lismore, and just 30 minutes from Byron Bay, a true natural wonder to experience if you have a penchant for nature.
In particular, other than the modern sports areas, fitness center and swimming pool, it is especially the learning environments that are truly in the focus area. The campus meets students with the ultimate study lounges, a big library and of course their infamous Goodman Plaza which is an often busy area with its range of food, student services, bookstore and banking facilities.
The university labs have the latest and most modern equipment for the different study areas, which means that you get the most out of your academic stay and a strong focus on the practicalities of your study field. You will have ample opportunity to form new friendships and a broad network as the SCU Lismore campus has over 80 different nationalities that are ready for an Australian adventure in beautiful natural circumstances, just like yourself.
North of the Gold Coast in Australia you will find the charming town of Lismore. Home to 40,000 local residents, Lismore is famous for its extraordinary natural beauty, amazing cultural diversity, local charm and the relaxed lifestyle of locals. Lismore is where old school blends with the 21st-century, with the twist of nature in the focus.
In Lismore you can expect a bustling city centre, easy access to World Heritage National parks featuring the most beautiful footpaths, waterfalls and panoramic views you'll never forget. In addition, the city has tourist attractions worth exploring during your leisure time along with a few music festivals each year.
Lismore has a subtropical climate which means that you can enjoy sunny weather for most of the year and enjoy surfing opportunities as the city is 40 kilometres from the coast. When you decide to go on a picnic, camping or simply any trip, don't be startled if you meet a koala on the road, as the area is known as one of the state's largest koala areas.
If you're lucky enough to wander past one of the local nearby villages, you might get the chance to taste their freshly grown macadamia nuts, coffee, tea, topical fruits or some of their dairy products. Lismore is known for its natural reserves and minerals.
This has attracted not only students from over 80 different nationalities that are enjoying the sunny climate and the beauty of nature, but especially also the very attractive cost of living which is significantly lower than the larger cities in the country. However, it's super easy to visit popular destinations such as Sydney and Melbourne through the region's airport, which makes it manageable to travel domestically.
SCU villages offers student accommodations of various sizes at a walking distance from campus. The facilities include internet, laundry, outdoor entertainment areas and a mini cinema. This on-campus option is perfect if you want to live on campus and be part of a social community during your study stay.

Jeg ledte efter et freemover-ophold i udlandet gennem Uniclub, og jeg fik noget af den bedste service, jeg har oplevet. De tog sig af alt det praktiske, og fjernede næsten alt det besvær med arbejde, det kan være at ansøge om et udvekslingsophold.

Havde fantastisk service og hjælp gennem hele processen. Vil bestemt anbefale
Jeg skal til Australien i et semester, og før jeg fandt Uniclub, virkede hele ansøgningsprocessen umulig. De her gutter er simpelthen de bedste. De har det rigtige svar på bogstaveligt talt ethvert spørgsmål, du har. De er hjælpsomme, hurtige, med fremragende service
Uniclub og Deni Isic, få min absolut varmeste anbefaling! Jeg havde en drøm om at komme til Japan, der virkede fjern og uhåndterlig, men Deni og resten af Uniclub har hjulpet mig gennem hele processen.
Jeg er lige vendt tilbage fra mit udvekslingsophold i Irland, hvilket ikke ville have været muligt, hvis det ikke var for Uniclub. Hvis du leder efter en udveksling som freemover, så kan jeg ikke anbefale UniClub nok!
