The University of Hull recognises the benefits of study abroad for its students both personally and professionally. If you choose to study abroad, you will have access to expert support and assistance from the International Office during your entire journey. Study abroad is a great way to improve your education and offers a unique opportunity to learn about yourself and the world around you. It is a chance to explore new places, to pursue new interests and gain new skills; it is a chance to live with people of different nationalities and cultural background, and to make new friendships which may last a life time. It will also assist your future career; living and studying in a foreign country will help increase your confidence and demonstrate to potential employers your willingness to take on new challenges and learn new skills.
