Go Global Week and Go Global Fairs

Once a year we host Go Global Week in October where we run a series of in-person workshops, where you get to chat to organisations that can offer you an experience of a lifetime to study, work or volunteer abroad during your degree.

The highlight of Go Global Week is our Go Global Fair.

We also host a Go Global Mini Fair in February each year.

Keep an eye on the website and our Careers Events page for date updates!

The adventure starts here!
