About this listen

A new domestic exchange programme will soon let students swap cities as easily as they swap courses.

Otago, AUT and Victoria University of Wellington have launched Uni Exchange Aotearoa, giving second-year undergraduates the chance to study at another university for a semester.

The scheme offers students a taste of travel without the challenges of going overseas.

Victoria University Vice-Chancellor Nic Smith told Mike Hosking New Zealand can actually offer a real diversity of experience within its universities.

He says the programme is designed to be at no cost to the students, so the decision can be made on the experience they want to have instead of a financial barrier.
