University Study Abroad

Leona Said:

What is the best university for study abroad in the UK?

We Answered:

All those unis have excellent reputations. London is, of course, the cultural epicentre of the UK and is definitely a vibrant city.However, as the previous post said, it doesn't really have a specifically Jewish community (although you'll still find it easy to fit in, I would have thought). Also, the city is quite spread out and is the most expensive place for a student to live in the country. On the other hand, Leeds is a fantastic to place to live. It has the benefits of London (excellent shopping, nightlife, cultural diversity etc.) without being expensive or spread-out. The uni is a ten-minute walk from the city centre and it's also a much friendlier city than London. Similarly, the Unis of Manchester, Newcastle and Liverpool are all good unis in great cities. Liverpool has just been crowned the Culture Capital of Europe, I think.

If it's a highly prestigious university you want, Oxford and Cambridge - and then perhaps Durham - all considered the best unis in the UK. However, they are all situated in much smaller cities (although nearish to London and Newcastle in Durham's case) and tend to have a smaller demographic in the types of people that attend. I.e. often wealthy private-schooled people and not many different ethnic groups, at least in my experience.

Whichever uni you choose, I'm sure you'll enjoy it though!

Can pharmacy students at Purdue University study abroad?

We Answered:

I would think that they could study abroad during a semester because Purdue Pharmacy's International minor requires that one spend at least 8 weeks outside the USA. Check with Purdue Pharmacy to be sure.

Joseph Said:

What is the salary of a director of a university study abroad program?

We Answered:

For the director (in the US), they usually prefer someone with a PhD. At the very least, you would be at a disadvantage with only a master's degree, although other positions in the study abroad office would be open to you. I think the director's salary is comparable to professor salaries. Administrative staff would be less.
