WASEDA 2021
The University of Adelaide offers Waseda University students the opportunity to
improve their English language proficiency and study an intensive academic
program with local and international students whilst immersing themselves in
Australian culture.
THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE
With over 140 years of excellence in education,
the University of Adelaide is one of Australia’s
oldest and most prestigious tertiary institutions.
Since its establishment in 1874, the University has
developed a reputation for excellence in teaching,
learning and research. It is consistently ranked in
the top 1% in the world and has produced five
Nobel Prize winners. With more than 27,000
students from more than 90 countries and over
3,000 staff, the University is small enough to
provide personal interaction with teaching staff,
yet large enough to offer a broad range of
programs and student support services.

LANGUAGE FOCUS (CS-L) The Language Focus program includes one semester developing English language and
communication skills to prepare for academic study at the University of Adelaide, and one semester
studying academic courses in your chosen field.
The Pre-Enrolment English Program (PEP) is an interactive task-based course. Through active participation,
you will learn by:
Undertaking individual and group project work,
Investigating the academic culture of the University,
Making oral presentations and responding to questions on your ideas,
Developing research and academic writing skills and reporting your findings in written form,
Reading, listening and note taking,
Reflecting on, and developing action plans for personal language progress, and
Leading and participating in seminars and tutorials.
As part of your course you will use blogs and discussion boards to share ideas and learning experiences with
teachers and peers. The use of these technologies will enable you to develop your ICT and critical thinking
skills, and engage in a different way of communicating in English.
At the end of the course, you will be asked to submit a research paper and deliver an oral presentation on
your work, and complete an exam essay.
After successful completion of PEP, students will be able to enrol into a semester of coursework classes at the
University of Adelaide. Study Abroad is an academic fee-paying program for international students.
Through participating in the Study Abroad program you can:
Gain credit from your home institution,
Satisfy your degree requirements by taking courses not available at Waseda University,
Improve your language skills and cultural understanding,
Develop your self-confidence and social skills,
Build strong global networks and make new friends,
Discover new knowledge and grow your international perspective, and
Increase your employability.

ADELAIDE CITY WHY ADELAIDE?
Students can truly immerse themselves in Australian culture by studying and socialising with local and other
international students, while still earning valuable academic credit from a prestigious Australian university and
exploring some of South Australia’s best cultural landmarks. Students will be surprised how quickly they can ‘feel at
home’ in the beautiful compact city of Adelaide.
Students will be amazed by the beauty and variety of nature found in South Australia, all within short reach of
Adelaide. Lush hills to the east, white sandy beaches to the west, dusty outback to the north and rugged coastline to
the south mean that they will never tire of exploring their Australian home, even in the cooler winter months.
OUTSTANDING LOCATION
The University of Adelaide is located in the cultural heart of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. The
University’s attractive main campus is situated in the centre of Adelaide’s vibrant retail, dining and cultural district,
bordered by the Art Gallery, Museum, State Library, Festival Centre, Botanical Gardens, Central Business District and
the River Torrens—an ideal location for local and international students alike.
Known for its pleasant Mediterranean climate, thriving economy, dynamic cultural scene and relatively low cost of
living, Adelaide offers an enviable lifestyle in an environment that is ideal for study and recreation. Adelaide is one of
the most affordable mainland cities, with a cost of living up to 14% lower than Sydney and Melbourne.* It is an
attractive, friendly, safe and well‐planned city of wide streets and boulevards, squares, parklands and a mixture of
historic and modern buildings. With a population of 1.3 million, Adelaide is Australia’s fifth largest city.
*Source: Study Adelaide studyadelaide.com.
ORIENTATION Students will be provided with a comprehensive Orientation
Program including a tour of the University of Adelaide campus.
Student ID cards will be issued to students after arrival. This will
allow access to all University facilities including computer labs,
the University library and the many clubs and cafes on campus.
Student cards also provide discounts for students on public
transport, at some restaurants, the cinema and other popular
student activities.
12
ACCOMMODATION HOMESTAY (PEP STUDENTS ONLY) During their time at the English Language Centre, students may choose to stay in homestay accommodation in an
Australian family home, allowing them to experience Australian family life and culture. As in most modern societies,
Australian households vary. A homestay family does not necessarily mean a two-parent family with children. Hosts
may be single individuals, married couples, single parents with children, couples or partners with or without
children. Backgrounds vary greatly. Typically host families have an interest in sharing their own culture with others
and are eager to learn about other cultures.
