Study activities outside the UK
If you're spending more than two weeks overseas for study, update Student Self Service with details of your placements/experiences.
Overseas placements may include field trips, lab work, library work, visits to other universities, research, or the writing up of a dissertation or thesis. This information is vital for helping the University provide pastoral support, should a situation arise in the country you visit.
Updating this information will also help the University understand whether the services and support on offer for students studying overseas is appropriate and how overseas study contributes to academic learning.
