Study abroad for Middlesex students
Make the most of our exchange programme to learn about a new culture and language, travel and make friends
Study abroad with Erasmus+
Study your subject from a different perspective - you'll discover new teaching and study methods, improve research skills and gain a new perspective on your subject area.
Get a competitive advantage in the job market - employers understand that candidates who have completed a study exchange are flexible, show a willingness to learn and have great leadership skills.
Work placements abroad
You can also choose a funded work placement abroad as part of Erasmus+. This can be as part of your course, during your summer vacation or after graduation.
Erasmus+ is the European Commission's exchange programme that funds opportunities for students to study or gain accredited work experience within the European Union, European Economic Area and Turkey.

Get an Erasmus+ grant
You could be eligible for an Erasmus+ grant to help with your living costs while studying abroad. You will receive this grant in addition to any standard grants or loans you already receive. There are also supplementary grants available if you have a disability or your family has a low income.
Learn a new language
- Develop your creativity, become part of a wider global community and upgrade your communication skills when you learn a language
- The exchange programme provides many opportunities for you to learn a new language or improve your current foreign language skills
- Remember that many of our partners in non-English-speaking countries also offer courses taught in English, so you don't need to be a fluent speaker to take part.
Meet Natasha
"Working at Business Booster, a start-up investment firm, was great for building up my business vocabulary in Spanish. Being thrown in at the deep end teaching has prepared me for whatever life throws at me. You've just got to go for it and step out of your comfort zone."
Business student Natasha spent 12 months living, working and studying in Valencia as part of our Erasmus+ exchange programme.
She learned business skills and Spanish in class and completed four different internships. She worked in the local university's international admissions office, taught English, supervised children at a summer school and worked for a start-up investment firm.

Studying a year in sunny and hot Spain was amazing! I had the opportunity to explore its exquisite culture – cuisine, music, dance, traditions – and best of all practice my Spanish.
