Undergraduate study
Why study an undergraduate degree?
Choosing to study at university is an exciting, life-changing experience. If you have not been to university before, you will likely want to study an undergraduate degree – which is sometimes called a first degree. This is a great way to improve your career prospects and specialise in a subject you enjoy learning about.
Studying abroad is a rewarding educational experience, and will open your mind up to a new world of potential career opportunities. A British education is respected around the world as a prestigious qualification, and will impress employers from every industry. Royal Holloway International Study Centre offers several programmes designed to prepare international students to thrive in their studies at a top 25 UK university (The Guardian University League Table 2022), and provides the perfect introduction to an undergraduate degree.
