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, USA or Hong Kong. Living in
another country, and studying at another
institution, will allow you to make new
friends from across the world and acquire
invaluable life skills. Importantly, it will also
help you develop a greater feeling of
independence and confidence. Not only
does an exchange programme allow you
to stretch your wings, it will undoubtedly
bring 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 the value
of £5,000 exist to help fund study abroad
for students facing financial difficulties.
Please note that exchange opportunities
are subject to availability. In addition,
please note that where exchange
opportunities are arranged in the EU,
Erasmus+ funding is available subject to
the UK remaining in the Erasmus+
scheme.
