Aberdeen Business School offers its undergraduate students the opportunity to take part in Study Abroad programmes across Europe and North America, with no extra time being added to their degree.

All of our partner institutions teach in English, so students can get the international experience of a lifetime without having to know a foreign language, although there is the option of learning the basics before and during their stay. If, like around one hundred ABS students every year, you are tempted by this exciting chance to explore and live in a new country, whilst giving your CV an attractive international boost then Study Abroad could be for you.

Find out more about this incredible opportunity by looking at our New Horizons brochure (below) or by contacting us at the Study Abroad Office by email on ABSStudyAbroad@rgu.ac.uk

All current Erasmus and Exchange students, should go to RGU Erasmus and Exchanges page for applications and other information.

For Students at our Partner Institutions

Programmes such as our Summer School are available for groups of students from other higher education institutions around the world. The Bachelors Link Programme is tailored for students at one of our partner colleges throughout North America who wish to spend one year in Scotland and achieve a Bachelors degree.

Each year Aberdeen Business School offers Summer School programmes for groups of students from higher education institutions around the world providing visiting students with a full educational, cultural and social activity programme and enabling them to experience the best of Scotland.

The Summer School Programme at Aberdeen Business School is part of the Europe-wide Summer Schools in Europe initiative. Participants of our Summer School have the opportunity to improve their knowledge and skills and also experience some of culture, social activities and magnificent scenery that both Aberdeen and Scotland have to offer.

It includes individual and group activities, company visits to renowned local and multinational businesses, and invaluable presentations and case studies relevant to the students’ area of study. We actively encourage our international students to take advantage of many of the exceptional activities available in Scotland while they are here.

Please note: All our courses are taught in English.

The Bachelors Link programme offers the chance to study abroad to international students currently on a relevant associate degree at one of our partner colleges throughout North America. The programme provides advanced entry into the third year of one of our internationally recognised Bachelors degrees.

After just one year with us you could graduate from Robert Gordon University - ‘The UK’s Best Modern University’ - with a Bachelors degree and an international experience that will not only boost your CV but could even come to shape you as a person.

Many students have found that our tuition fees are more affordable than at universities and colleges in North America, so coming over to Scotland for a life-changing experience and a degree you can be proud of may also be cheaper than you think!

The Bachelors Link programme offers the chance to enhance your further education by studying abroad while also experiencing life in another country. This is a fantastic opportunity to study abroad in the student-friendly city of Aberdeen in the NE of Scotland. Aberdeen is within easy reach of Scotland’s breathtaking landscapes and historical sites, diverse sports and outdoor facilities, and cultural centres and cities such as Edinburgh and Glasgow.
