Study abroad

Kelsey French, Germany

All of our BA German students spend their third year abroad either studying at a partner institution or gaining practical work experience. 

You'll discover a new culture, develop your knowledge and skills, improve your German language skills, and make yourself stand out from your peers in the job market.

How we support you

In your first and second year you’ll be able to network with returning students for first-hand advice about living abroad, have meetings with the residence abroad tutor and have access to online information before you relocate.

We’ll be in touch with you during your year abroad and you’ll have support at your host university too.

On your return, we’ll ask you to share your experiences and make the most of your new and improved skills and experience.
