University of Essex
The University of Essex is an international community of original thinkers who believe in challenging convention and changing the world for the better. The University is committed to two things: excellence in teaching and excellence in research. Studying abroad at the University of Essex will offer you experience in a different environment. Not only will it enrich your academic experience, it will also give you the chance to get to know another country and culture in a way that is not always possible as a tourist.
