Travel Advice Fair

The Travel Advice Fair is an annual event held on the first Wednesday in November.

We aim to promote opportunities abroad whether it is an exchange with one of our linked Universities, volunteering, work experience, back packing or simply a holiday.

International Students who wish to see more of Scotland can find information on travel and tour opportunities.

If you need advice or ideas for travel or volunteering abroad any other time visit the Volunteering Fair held every year in the last week of February or come to the Advice Centre, DUSA level 4 and get inspiration from the resource library or ask any of the advisors for info.
