Deakin University English Language Institute
International students
DUELI offers a variety of uniquely Australian study tours from its location at the Melbourne Campus at Burwood, where students can experience the sights and culture of Australia while improving their English language skills.
Students will have the chance to explore Melbourne, the capital city of Victoria and a safe, cosmopolitan and multicultural city as well as the education, cultural and recreational centre of Australia.
Whether you are a student or a professional, we will design a program to meet your specific needs and interests. Our aim is to provide you with an exciting learning and social experience — one that you can take home and keep in your memory for the years to come.
Our successful study tours draw heavily on the expertise of Deakin University and its strong community links, and are supported by our English language programs with industry visits and cultural excursions.
Study tours can be designed to match almost any subject area and interest group. For example, tours can be designed for groups interested in management, nursing, engineering, early childhood development, or Teaching English as a Foreign Language.
