Exchange opportunities

We work with a number of universities overseas to offer student exchange opportunities. If you are enrolled at one of our partner universities outside of the United Kingdom you may be able to join us for an exchange programme.

Exchange programme lengths vary depending on the course which you are studying. You may join us for a couple of weeks, a semester, or a full academic year. Your university will be able to provide more information.

Research has also shown that , so not only will you benefit from cultural exchanges, you'll also be improving your graduate prospects.
