Deakin University is a multi-sited institution in the prosperous city of Melbourne in the state of Victoria, Australia. Within the university's Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences is the School of Exercise and Nutrititional Sciences. There are a number of courses that are compatible between Deakin University's degree offerings and those of the Department of Exercise and Nutritional Sciences at SDSU.

The timing of semesters between SDSU and Deakin University is acceptably similar to allow students to study at the other institution while maintaining normal calendar progress toward degree completion.

• At SDSU the Fall Semester is normally scheduled from mid to late August through to mid to late December, and the Spring Semester is from mid to late January through to mid to late May across two calendar years. Actual dates can be accessed through the SDSU Academic Calendar.
• At Deakin University, the First Semester is normally scheduled from mid to late February through to mid to late July, and the Second Semester is from mid to late July through to mid to late November within a single calendar year. Actual dates can be accessed through the Calendar selection on the general web site index.

Courses that apply to SDSU's general education requirements could also be taken at Deakin University, however, they are not listed here. A student would have to individually determine those similarities. The appropriate site for discovering offerings can be accessed at the Deakin University Handbook web site.

Exchange programs are possible in both exercise science and foods and nutrition. Select the option below that is of interest to you. It will transfer to a detailed explanation of the course equivalencies between Deakin University and San Diego State University.

The following tables are presented as general guidelines about courses that are deemed by SDSU faculty to be compatible between the two institutions. It is possible that some of the course-availability information included is not accurate for a particular academic year. The specific academic calendars and course offerings at either institution for a particular semester should be consulted to confirm exact course availability.
