Your learning experience : Giving you a step up
Broadening your horizons : study abroad
Studying abroad through our exchange programmes can be one of the most exciting and rewarding challenges for a student to experience . The opportunity to travel and live in another country , learn different customs and traditions , meet new people and build a future career draws many students into the exchange programmes .
With great links across the world , you can choose to study part of your QMU degree in Europe , Australia , New Zealand , Canada , the USA or Hong Kong . Living in another country , and studying at another institution , allows you to make new friends from across the world and acquire invaluable life skills . Importantly , it will help you develop a greater feeling of independence and confidence . An exchange programme allows you to stretch your wings , and undoubtedly brings you benefits for years to come .
Where exchanges are available , students can spend a semester at an overseas university . Care has been taken to select appropriate international partnerships , ensuring that a period spent on exchange gives QMU students credit towards their studies .
A number of scholarships up to £ 5,000 exist to help fund study abroad for students facing financial difficulties .
Please note that exchange opportunities are subject to availability .
Funding support may be available to assist students with a recognised semester abroad .
