This module offers an opportunity to spend a semester studying abroad at one of our Erasmus partner institutions. You will enrol programme of study in areas that match, as far as possible, the work you would be doing at your home institution. You will benefit from exposure to a different culture and learning environment. In addition to your academic work, you will gain valuable skills that come from living and working in a different country.

You will be assessed on the equivalent of 60 UK credits at your host institution (i.e. 30 ECTS European Credit Transfer System). The exact nature of your assessment will depend on your individual enrolment.
