University Faculty Projects

Our UniBreak Group projects respond to an increasingly important need for students to gain practical experience in their field of study. While carrying out community projects overseas, students learn a wide range of highly valuable skills by applying their course work in practical and sometimes challenging settings. At the same time, group placements allow universities to raise their profile both locally and internationally and strengthen bonds between the university, students and staff members.


A UniBreak Group can be supervised by faculty staff who travel with the group free of charge. All placements are managed and facilitated on the ground by our in-country agents, guides and interpreters in destinations such as the Maldives, Peru, Borneo, India, Nepal, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand and more

The most beneficial thing about going with Antipodeans Abroad was that they were very professional. It was obvious there was a lot of pre-planning that went on before departure as everything ran very smoothly. I’d definitely recommend travelling with Antipodeans Abroad as it is a safe, organised and well-planned way to travel to remote countries.
