What students say
Being able to travel and opening my eyes to what's out there was an amazing experience. To this day I still think about the programme and talk with my colleagues at work about it.
The programme helped me become more confident in interacting with new people, as well as more adaptable to different environments. This is incredibly useful in my current role.
