Going Exchange
Step out from your comfort zone to work, to serve, and to study overseas. Be an active problem-solver and independent learner.
By spending a semester, or even a full academic year, in an overseas university, students immerse themselves in a foreign culture and a transformational experience inspiring them to live, learn and unleash their potential in a new environment. Summer exchange programmes are also available for students who wish to get a taste of this unique educational opportunity.
