Study Abroad

Many students are keen to take advantage of the option of studying abroad for a year during their undergraduate degree. This is a fantastic opportunity for students to experience living in a different country, improve their communication skills, and make new contacts. The workplace is invariably a global market now, so having experience of studying in a different country is an excellent way of demonstrating working internationally on your CV. 

The department has partnerships with the following universities to enable students to study abroad for a year:

  • EIGSI La Rochelle Engineering School, France
  • ENSEA, Cergy, Paris, France
  • ICAI School of Engineering, Madrid
