Why choose a year abroad?

• In a complex and hyper-connected world, it is more important than ever to demonstrate a global outlook to employers
• A report by Universities UK International shows that graduates who are mobile during their degree are more likely to earn more than non-mobile peers
• Broaden your perspective in a way that benefits you for life: accelerating your resilience and flexibility, developing your ability to communicate across cultures, and demonstrating that you take the initiative
• We find students return from their year abroad with heightened self-confidence and an impressive work ethic.
