Middlesex University offers one of the most comprehensive exchange programmes in the UK. You can go on exchange on most of our degree programmes – from jazz to nursing, politics to business - and we have over 100 different exchange partners to choose from across the world.
A funded research traineeship overseas is a great way to enhance your university experience and broaden your horizons. Additionally, taking part in such a programme increases your employability and supplements the value of your research by exposing you to a different culture, different thinking and a different way of doing things.
The Erasmus+ programme facilitates cultural and educational exchange. You will develop personally and professionally, as well as fostering a deeper understanding of other cultures and people. An Erasmus+ grant tops up your finances.
“Here in Belgrade I have the incredible opportunity to look at minutia: subtle differences, aesthetics, spaces and choices. I am discovering more about how the politics and economics of cultural production is both similar and different to other sites of fieldwork across the continent of Europe, so this time is crucial for comparative depth and understanding.” - Alexandra Baybutt, PhD School of Media and Performing Arts, University of Belgrade, Serbia
