The exposure and the growth students experience while constantly being exposed to new culture, new people, languages and opportunities is unparalleled. Students get to gain valuable work experience through inter ships or work placements.
They also get to be part of an international student organization and events that promote cross cultural communication. Studying abroad also teaches students to be self sufficient and learn how to be an adult.
