A Lancaster student has set up a Study Abroad Society which aims to unite students who are planning on or have already studied abroad.
The society is hoping to gain official society status on Friday, Week Eight. President, Tim McKenzie said: “The aim of the society is to establish a base for students planning to study abroad. There are worries that there are no current systems in place and many students have questions which can most effectively be answered by students who have already studied abroad”.
McKenzie who studied in Iowa in the US for the second year of his Economics degree says that he has generated a good network of around 40 students so far and hopes to organise a social as soon as definitive status as a society is established.
