Undergraduate students from all academic disciplines can now submit their research projects to the Global Undergraduate Awards (GUA) for the chance to have their work published and attend a three-day summit in Dublin.

Any undergraduate student in their final or penultimate year of study who have produced a piece of A-graded or equivalent coursework is eligible to submit their work to be considered for the Global Undergraduate Awards.

Germany is a popular study-abroad destination, not least because 16 German states abolished tuition fees for both domestic and international undergraduate students at all public universities in 2014.

However, even if you are eligible for free tuition in Germany, there will still be other costs you’ll need to consider if you want to study there, including accommodation, food and flights.

The truth about moving abroad is that sometimes it can be lonely, exhausting, intimidating and uncomfortable, but it is always invigorating. You grow to enjoy your own company and push boundaries you otherwise would not get near.

When I first became interested in study-abroad programmes, one of my biggest concerns was funding. After my first semester at the University of Texas at Austin, I had heard so many stories from my Korean professor about her students who had studied abroad.

There are lots of reasons why studying abroad might be for you.

You might find a degree course that isn’t available in your home country; you might learn to live independently; or you might network with amazing people and learn about other cultures. Whatever your reason for considering the experience, there are so many more positives. And if you don’t believe us, just look at what real students had to say about studying abroad.

When preparing to study abroad, one of the most important things to consider is how you will fund your studies.

There are many scholarships or partial scholarships available to international students, but trying to find the right one for you can be difficult when faced with so much choice.
