Study Abroad Programme

Study Abroad Programme The English Department requires students to spend a Summer term in a country where English is the mother tongue (usually the United States or the United Kingdom), studying two courses (3-6 credits) at an appropriate institution. They will be required to do this between the second and third years of study.

The educational rationale for this is based on the widely accepted view that learning a language implies learning about the culture(s) where that language is spoken. In addition, studying with other nationality groups in another university provides an enhanced learning experience of enormous benefit. The English Department provides students with counselling as to the overseas institutions that are appropriate.
