Where can I go?

Your options depend on your current degree programme. Undergraduate students can normally go abroad for a full year, a short period over the summer or, in limited cases, just a semester. Click on Study/Work Abroad options below to see more information about study and work abroad opportunities.

Please also come along to one of the information sessions about study and work abroad opportunities, where we will run through your options and talk about destinations, finance and the application process. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions to the International Exchanges Coordinator. All students are welcome to attend, however, please be advised that most of our programmes are currently only available to undergraduate students.
