THINK BIG!
GO GLOBAL.
5 REASONS
TO STUDY ABROAD
It has been said that the world is like a book and those who
do not travel read only one page. We could not agree more.
Overseas study is always a voyage of discovery and one that offers many
inspirational experiences (and the occasional challenge) to help you
towards your academic, career and personal goals.
If the world is like a book, there’s no better time to start
your next chapter…
OUR PROGRAMMES
STUDY ABROAD FOR A SEMESTER
Visit a host university for a semester or an academic year, while you study
and live abroad. With a range of courses on offer, you will gain first-hand
experience of different learning styles and earn credits to take back home.
SEE the world and develop global
perspective by absorbing other
cultures.
EXPERIENCE different learning
styles and give your résumé an
international edge.
LEARN a new language or way of
life living among locals.
MEET lifelong friends and build an
international network of contacts.
CHALLENGE your boundaries and
boost your confidence,
resilience and self-reliance.
STUDY ABROAD FOR A SUMMER
If you can’t spare a full semester, why not study abroad for a summer and
earn academic credits while you travel? From sports science and theatre,
