Why study abroad?

One of the main objectives of studying abroad is to broaden your academic knowledge and network. It is a good idea to seek advice from lecturers and student advisors when planning your studies abroad to find out where to go and how to structure your academic programme. Your lecturers may have academic input and international contacts, and may be able to provide you with useful references.
