Reading 10,000 books is not as useful as travelling 10,000 miles, says a Chinese proverb, and three University of Queensland students are taking the advice to heart.
Jaya Prasad, Zackary George and Augustus Evans-Barns will study in China for a semester in 2017, after each being awarded $12,000 Westpac Asian Exchange scholarships, which support students to study at leading Asian universities.
The scholarship is designed to allow students to develop a deeper understanding of Asia’s role in Australia's future prosperity through academic study and cultural immersion.
For more information on the Westpac Asian Exchange Scholarship and other global study opportunities, contact UQ Abroad, +61 (7) 3365 2836, uqabroad@uq.edu.au.
