Natural and Environmental Sciences

You can apply to up to five exchange programmes. Some countries are more popular than others, so try to select alternative options from different countries. Some partner universities have limited places, often one or two, so use all five of your application choices and be prepared not to get your first choice.

We keep our exchange partner information as up to date as possible, but sometimes changes happen at short notice. 

It's important that you research the universities you're interested in. Don’t rule out locations you may not have heard of - there are some hidden gems on our lists.

How to apply

When Natural and Environmental Sciences students can study abroad

Chemistry students can study at one of our exchange partners after Stage 2. You will be assessed on the basis of a research project that you conduct while overseas. You will also take distance learning modules in advanced organic and inorganic chemistry.

All other students in the School can study at one of our exchange partners for a full academic year:

• between Stages 2 and 3 of a three-year programme
• between Stages 3 and 4 of a four-year integrated Masters programme

For all students, a year abroad will make your degree one year longer.
