Study, work or volunteer abroad
York's global opportunities give you the chance to explore the world.
At York, you may have opportunities to take your learning abroad for a year, or to discover a new subject during the summer. With us and our international partner universities on your side, it's a perfect time to experience other cultures with the support you need to thrive.
Why go abroad?
- Give your employability a major boost, and a competitive edge in the global workforce before your career gets off the ground.
- Broaden your cultural and social perspectives, and experience new environments as a fully-fledged local, not a tourist.
- Develop your language and communication skills, expand your professional networks, and make friends from around the world.
- Boost your self-confidence, independence and ambition, and conquer challenges using strengths you never knew you had.
