Global Opportunities Fair

Spending time abroad as part of your degree is an amazing experience. The Global Opportunities Fair for 2020 is now over, but you can still find the resources from the event in our Google Folder.

We will advertise the Fair for 2021 here closer to the time.

Online drop ins give you the chance to speak to a member of Global Opportunities & Exchanges without an appointment. Questions can be asked verbally or using chat.
