International Opportunities

Keen to explore the world? Our School is committed to internationalisation and students are encouraged to take advantage of the global opportunities available, whether that be studying abroad or undertaking an international work placement. We believe such experience to be important to help prepare our students to become true global citizens.

 

Why Go Abroad?

 

Where Can You Go?

Our students have completed work placements across the globe, ranging from labs in Thailand to farms in New Zealand. We have a dedicated careers and placement team to support our students and we are continually increasing our links with organisations both locally and internationally to provide high quality opportunities for our students. Explore the map above to hear from our students who undertook international placements. Discover more in our student experiences blog.

Students also have the opportunity to avail of study abroad options, with previous students participating in the Study USA Programme. Learn about Annie's (Biological Sciences) Study USA experience.
