Australia Studies Centre (ASC)
Since 2004, the CCCU has partnered with the Wesley Institute in Sydney, Australia, to offer learning opportunities through the Australian Studies Centre. During the semester, students study theology, global justice issues affecting Australia, Indigenous cultures, and the arts.
Every student is required to take these courses:
- The View from Australia: Issues in Religion, Politics, Economics, & Cultural Values
- Indigenous History, Culture, & Identity
Additionally, students choose from electives in theology/ministry, music, drawing/graphic design, or drama.
Home stays, service learning, and travel around Australia are important components of the ASC. Students observe Australia’s beautiful landscape, live in the cosmopolitan melting pot of Sydney, serve the poor of Sydney’s multi-cultural ghettos, and engage the political capital, Canberra, and its power players.
Students also learn the traditions of Aboriginal people during an Outback excursion and spend the last week of each semester traveling to New Zealand to meet with Maori people.
