Some courses include time abroad, such as when studying business practices in Europe or taking languages. You will study overseas for a set time, possibly only a short time or maybe for up to a year. You will be given help to find somewhere to live and in getting settled. Even if your course does not include organised time abroad, you might be able to apply for a European grant to study abroad. This option would have to be agreed with your course organisers.
People choose their degree subject for a great number of different reasons.
Some people will have had a strong idea of the particular subject they want to study because they have a particular career goal for which they have to have a specific university qualification. There are also many non-vocational subjects on offer at universities. These provide a range of skills that will be valuable for a variety of careers. Some people will have a strong interest in extending their knowledge about a particular subject area that they enjoy such as geography, languages, chemistry or politics. Others may decide to study a new subject that they have not had the opportunity to learn at any other stage in their education.
