Outgoing Erasmus Students: Preparing for Year Abroad - Pre-departure Orientation
The International Education Office will host a pre-departure orientation in late August/early September of your study abroad year.
The orientation is designed to allow for an exchange of view on the practical and academic matters associated with studying abroad under the ERASMUS programme. It is hoped that this year's returning ERASMUS students will be able to share their experiences with the outgoing students, with their academic coordinators and with the staff of the International Education Office.
The orientation will highlight the procedures involved in studying abroad and the importance of completing credit requirements and maintaining contact with your home departments at UCC in relation to your course choices.
