This event is being run by two students who participated in the Routes Abroad scheme in the summer of 2015.

They will be talking about summer placements abroad, their own experiences and what the Routes Abroad experience has brought them personally. They will also talk about information available to help students create their own experience abroad including application forms, weblinks and other resources for finding summer projects as well as term-time language courses. A leaflet with all of this information will be provided at the event for students to take away.

No registration is required for this event, please just go along on the day.

This is a third party event

This year, Aston University will host its eleventh International Business and Modern Foreign Languages Residential for students studying French, Spanish or German or who are considering taking a year abroad as part of their degree. The event offers students an invaluable opportunity to develop their language and communication skills whilst also understanding the role their language could play in the world of work. Students can now study German or Spanish at Aston without having completed an A Level previously, so if your students are interested in learning a language or doing a study year abroad, this residential is ideal for them. Please note there is a cost of £99 per student for this event.
