experience. Alternatively, you could choose to apply to work overseas, which enables you to gain work experience in an exciting new setting. As well as developing new skills, you'll also make some amazing memories, meet new people and explore everything your chosen country has to offer.</p> <p>Many departments will support you to take a year overseas for study or work. This is an optional arrangement that extends the duration of your degree for one year. Some of our courses include time studying abroad as part of your degree. You’ll find more details by searching for your course.</p> <p><strong><a class="btn btn-brand btn-lg" role="button" draggable="false" href="https://warwick.ac.uk/services/studentopportunity/studentmobility/">Study abroad at Warwick <i class="fas fa-caret-right" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></strong></p> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-5"> <div class="boxstyle_ box"><p><img src="https://warwick.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/explore/content-blocks/chinatown-ls.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <section class="boxstyle_ box full-width flush-top"> <div class="margins"><br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;">Ten reasons to study abroad</h3> <br /> <div class="row equal-height-md ie-thumbs-fix"> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-8"> <div class="row equal-height-md ie-thumbs-fix"> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6"> <div class="boxstyle_ box2"> <h4 style="text-align: left;"><strong>1.
