Working, Studying and Volunteering Abroad

It is currently estimated that around 7.8% of undergraduate students work, study or volunteer abroad as part of their degree. This figure is aimed to be doubled by many universities within the year 2020. The largest proportion of undergraduates studying or working overseas is in Northern Ireland and Scotland. The top three countries that these mobile students visit are France, Spain and the US.

The volunteering sector often referred to as ‘voluntourism’ is estimated to have around 85 organisations within the UK place about 50,000 volunteers overseas each and every year. Many people are often attracted to the idea of working or volunteering in exchange for free travel and accommodation.
