For many people it has. The 5-Week expedition is built around professional development, the Thesis Programme supports dissertation fieldwork with supervision and data access, and alumni leave with reference letters, an alumni network and internship pathways. We’re partnered with a few different universities for placements and internships which count for credits and if we’re not already partnered with your uni we’ll be familiar with the process so it should be easy enough to arrange it to count towards your degree.
If you’re from a UK university, we recommend looking into the Turing Scheme funding to help finance your trip – this is a specific funding scheme at some UK universities to help students travel abroad and broaden their learning experience.
