As part of the Chinese, Japanese, or Thai Single or Joint Honours degrees, you spend your second year at a university in East or South East Asia where you follow language and studies courses organised for you.
This is a valuable opportunity to improve your language skills and to experience life in the society about which you have been studying. The year abroad strengthens your independence and also helps you to explore potential career possibilities and make contacts with employers in China, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand and other parts of East Asia.
Spending a year studying in a foreign country requires a great deal of planning and thought, but the rewards are tremendous. Throughout your first year at Leeds, we hold a series of briefing sessions to help you prepare for what will be one of the most exciting experiences of your life. The pages in this section provide you with lots of information about the universities, and courses of the Year Abroad Programme.
