Global Opportunity for Undergraduate Students

About the program:

This is a fantastic opportunity to learn about Chinese culture, and economy and visit some of the beautiful places in Chengdu and the wider Sichuan province.

Fees and funding:

The host institution will cover the programme cost, accommodation and internal travel. Students must fund their flight, visa cost, covid test cost and expenses. We have limited funds to support a small number of UK-domiciled undergraduate students to attend this programme. The funding is aimed at providing an overseas experience for students who have not previously travelled abroad for work or study and faced personal circumstances that restrict their ability to travel overseas. The funding will be used mainly to pay for the return flight, visa, covid test, and expenses. Students who are not eligible for funding will have to self-fund the trip.

Duration:

26 June to 8 July 2023.

Application process:

Applications will be ranked according to how well they meet these criteria. You should ensure that you answer all questions fully, providing clear and quantifiable evidence of barriers to working/studying abroad.
