Why should I consider participating in the UCD School of Agriculture and Food Science Study Abroad Exchange Programme?
Studying abroad will definitely challenge you but the rewards are great! You will benefit immensely from the challenge of living and studying in a foreign country, gaining a new set of skills and broadening your experience, while at the same time earning credits towards your UCD degree.
Ask any student who has taken part in the UCD School of Agriculture and Food Science Study Abroad Exchange Programme and they will tell you how they've benefitted: developing cultural awareness; making lifelong friendships with people they wouldn't otherwise have met; seeing the world from a new perspective; earning college credits while living abroad; increasing self-confidence, improving communication skills and enhancing career opportunities on graduation.
