International opportunities

Here at the School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences, we are committed to developing a culture of internationalisation, and making a contribution to the world through everything we do. This is reflected in the impact we make on the student experience, academic and research arena through student and staff mobility, partnerships, collaborations, and our global alumni network. We believe that exposure to different cultures and ideas is an essential part of education, fostering a community of learners who are not just academically proficient but also culturally aware and globally engaged.

Study abroad

We encourage all our students to be global citizens, from the moment you join us through to your graduation and employment. To help you develop the global perspectives and intercultural experiences valued by employers today, we offer plenty of opportunities for you to internationalise your learning while at NTU.

Visiting students: exchange and study abroad

Every year we welcome a dynamic community of visiting students from our partner universities all over the world.

Studying abroad has greatly enriched my academic studies and allowed me to take modules and have experiences I couldn't of had otherwise. It is also a great opportunity in terms of future career prospects as it allows you to network outside of your home university.

Field trips

Many courses at the School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences involve fields trips both in the UK and internationally. We pride ourselves in providing our students with the opportunity to put their knowledge and skills from their chosen course into practice. Take a look below at some of our previous field trips.

I went on a field trip to Somiedo in Spain for my Wildlife Field Techniques and GIS module. Whilst there I took part in carrying out a variety of different surveys on both flora and fauna. My experience here was invaluable, I gained a lot of hands-on experience in the field. It provided valuable experiences for personal and work-related growth.
