Short-Term Opportunities

Short-term global opportunities allow you to gain international experience as part of your degree, without committing to a full year or semester abroad. These experiences usually occur over the summer months, outside of term time.

Shorter term global placements are a great option if you:

• don’t want to extend the length or duration of your degree, but would like to add an international dimension to your study experience
• have family, work or caring commitments that mean you can’t travel outside of the UK for long periods of time
• just want to try something different without a big time commitment

There are lots of positive reasons to incorporate a global experience as part of your degree. A short-term global placement gives you the opportunity to:

• make cultural connections
• improve your intercultural understanding
• discover a new country
• enhance your skills and CV

Something for everyone

Undertaking a more flexible placement across the summer allows you to choose an experience that’s right for you.
