Student Opportunity Student Mobility

Preparing for your placement overseas

We are now half-way through the Student Mobility Inclusivity project to investigate the ways that we can support students undertaking their mobility journey (the time spent overseas on placement). This fourth questionnaire asks you to reflect on the preparation stage of the journey. We know that planning your placement year coincided with revision and exams at Warwick, and want to find out if there is any further support or information we could offer to make this preparation period easier.

Your interaction with this will be greatly appreciated and the completion of all questionnaires will help to inform us on how to review our support for future years’ mobility.
