Study abroad opportunities

Undergraduate students: The vast majority of undergraduate students have the opportunity to study abroad.

Depending on your degree programme we offer a range of study abroad programmes to enable you to enhance your international experience at Nottingham. Some degree programmes include a compulsory year abroad, such as those in the Department of American and Canadian Studies, while many others offer the opportunity to apply to study abroad for one semester as part of a three-year programme, without extending your degree.

All students on a study abroad programme pay reduced tuition fees to Nottingham and no fees to the host university/campus. You may also be entitled to a scholarship or bursary.

Discover the range of opportunities available at Nottingham and find out how you can study abroad at the Study Abroad Fair on Wednesday 21 November.
