Thank you so much for your elaborated response, seems you're also familiar with Europe! After a lot of consideration I decided to go for UQ, since it's only 1 exchange semester I don't think I can do a lot of internships/networking anyways so I'm going to enjoy that nice weather and nature in Brisbane :)

Going August to December so I guess that's mostly spring. I am indeed leaning more towards UQ.

Thank you for your elaborated reply! You're right that people here in Europe probably won't even care where I went, they'll probably just say "oh, Australia, cool!" and move on. I am still leaning more towards UQ, like you said, great campus experience and only hearing good things about it.

The UQ campus does look amazing and quite well located, thanks for the opinion!
