·         Occasional Facebook ‘takeovers’, posting a ‘week in the life of an exchange student’ on the main University Study Abroad Facebook page

·         Give one presentation at the host University in conjunction with the local International Office to promote study at Northumbria University

·         Regularly post photos to Instagram/Facebook to promote Northumbria’s study abroad programme
