STUDY ABROAD<br />
Studying abroad is a part of the <strong>European</strong> <strong>Business</strong><br />
<strong>School</strong> London (EBSL) learning experience that our<br />
students most look forward to. You will have an exciting<br />
choice of destinations for the two Study Periods Abroad<br />
(SPA) in Semesters 4 and 5.<br />
EBSL h<strong>as</strong> carefully selected over 90<br />
study-abroad partner institutions, b<strong>as</strong>ed<br />

globe. For the full range of choices<br />

Studying abroad offers you the<br />
opportunity to reach a commanding<br />
level of fluency in your chosen<br />
language(s) and to study specialist<br />
options that will take you closer<br />
towards your chosen career.<br />
During your SPA, you will attend<br />
selected academic courses alongside<br />
students who are native speakers of<br />
the language and, in most c<strong>as</strong>es, you will<br />
take the same examinations <strong>as</strong> they do.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is no question that you will come<br />
back a different person. Study abroad<br />
is a stimulating experience and highly<br />
prized by employers.<br />
Employers are keen to recruit from<br />
EBSL because of the value study abroad<br />
adds to our degree programmes,<br />
enabling our students to e<strong>as</strong>ily adapt<br />
to diverse academic and cultural<br />
environments and to become flexible<br />
and experienced business professionals.<br />
<strong>The</strong> SPA is a highly demanding<br />
experience, and you will need to be well<br />
prepared before you go.To be eligible,<br />
you must have successfully completed<br />
all the core modules of your degree<br />
at Level 4 and Level 5.This includes all<br />
relevant language courses.<br />
Your choice of location for your SPA<br />
will be b<strong>as</strong>ed on the language(s) you<br />
are specialising in, <strong>as</strong> well <strong>as</strong> on a close<br />
match between the specialist expertise<br />
of the host institution and your own<br />
developing career plan.<br />
<strong>The</strong> International Partnerships Office<br />
and SPA advisers offer personal<br />
guidance to ensure that you select the<br />
most appropriate partner institution.<br />
I have gained very good French language skills and an understanding of the differences<br />
between <strong>European</strong> cultures. Going to live in a French-speaking environment for a year<br />
after only having studied the language for three semesters seemed daunting at first, but<br />
turned out to be the experience of a lifetime.<br />
