LEARNING ABROAD
AMAZING EXPERIENCES
BEYOND THE CLASSROOM
When you choose to study overseas, it’s
more than your surroundings that change –
you’ll experience new cultures and enhance
your global perspective. Take the leap and
broaden your mind.
HOW STUDYING ABROAD CAN GIVE
YOU AN EDGE
There are many benefits to studying overseas. Research has shown
that students with international study experience:
• have better grades throughout their degree
• are more employable once they graduate
• earn more throughout their career.
