Broaden your horizons by spending a year studying in the US, Australia, or Europe as a part of your Engineering degree. Your studies abroad count towards your final degree classification and so you take modules which fit into Lancaster’s scheme of study.
Our Study Abroad students benefit greatly from their experiences abroad and often find it life-changing. It’s a great opportunity to broaden your horizons and develop an understanding of different cultures and values, as well as provide you with a chance to become more independent.
But not only will studying abroad develop you on a personal level, it can also help you develop your potential career opportunities. An overseas experience can add a distinctive element to your CV, demonstrating your ability to live and work flexibly and adapt to new situations.
If you’re not sure whether this is the degree for you, our advice is to apply for the Study Abroad scheme - it’s easier to drop out of it than to apply for it once you’re here!
