By combining formal study with service to the local community, students find their learning takes on greater depth and meaning. They meet regularly with a British faculty member to reflect on, explore, examine and analyze the issues of the larger society and culture. Housing is in college dormitories. Students learn about the society from an insiders point of view and through the service are able to connect to the community at a much deeper level than a traditional exchange student or tourist. One year courses are available as studyabroad programmes.
Work placement is a small but important part of most of the courses.
Possibility of European work placement on certain pre-degree courses. The college is in a semi-urban position having excellent international student support systems. Courses lead to recognised qualifications. Certificates of attendance given to those who do not stay the full length of the programme. Unique graduate study abroad for counseling professionals.
