Study Abroad
ENRICH YOUR UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCE
If you enrol at Keele you’ll already be studying
abroad but have you considered enhancing your
studies at one of our partner universities?
A world of Choice
Keele has agreements with over
80 universities across North
America, Europe, Asia and
Australasia enabling students to
globalise their degree. Developing
cultural awareness, enhancing
communication skills, becoming
more independent, increasing
employability, meeting new people
and being taught your subject from
a different perspective are just
some of the advantages to studying
abroad mid-degree.
There are plenty of different
opportunities to globalise your
degree including:
• The International Year: Spend
a year studying at a partner
university experiencing life in
another culture. You can even split
the year in half and spend time in
two locations. The International
Year is usually taken between
the second and third year of your
degree and is not credit bearing
which means you can study some
relevant modules from outside
your core discipline.
• Semester Abroad: Take one
semester of modules at an
approved partner during the
second year of your degree.
• Language Schools: If you learn
a language alongside your degree
you can attend a language
summer school in a country that
speaks the same language to
build confidence and fluency and
to put your new skills to the test.
• Research Programme: Students
in Life Sciences are offered the
opportunity to spend 3 months
in Malaysia conducting research
alongside academic staff at
Universiti Sains Malaysia.
• Study Tour: Some courses offer
an overseas study tour guided
by an academic in conjunction
with a partner university.
