Study Abroad

Those who have chosen to study abroad often say that it was the highlight of their time as a student.

We offer our undergraduate students (excluding BA Social Work) the opportunity to study abroad as a part of the university's study abroad programmes.

This can be an exciting and rewarding once in a lifetime opportunity to experience new cultures and make new friends whilst studying towards your degree.

My study abroad experience was simply fantastic! I studied at Oregon State University in the USA. My favourite thing about the whole experience was the content of study. All my classes were extremely insightful, I never missed a class. I met so many wonderful people who really welcomed me into the American and on-campus culture. I truly feel that studying abroad gave me the opportunity to become more independent.
