UNDERGRADUATE QUALIFICATIONS

Go Global! To participate in the Lincoln University Global Mobility programme you will have to be enrolled at one of our partner institutions.

We have agreements in place with universities in Canada, Denmark, The United States of America, United Kingdom, Norway and Sweden.

Monique O’Connell Specialist Bachelor of Agricultural Science Monique combined her study at Lincoln University with an opportunity to travel overseas through the Go Global programme. “I wanted to see the world while retaining my degree programme and enrolment at Lincoln University so decided that Go Global was the best option. “I chose to go to Colorado State University in the United States of America, one of the participating universities in the programme. In total there are over a dozen universities worldwide available as places of study for Lincoln University students under the Go Global programme. “North America is somewhere I always wanted to go, and I loved the look of the Rocky Mountains, which pass through Colorado. In fact the highest peak in the Rockies is in Colorado, Mount Elbert.” After completing her Agricultural Science degree at Lincoln University, Monique hopes to work in the agricultural field, and she knows her degree will qualify her well for the job market.

Overseas students The Global Mobility programme offers students at our partner institutions an opportunity to exchange one or two semesters at home for one or two semesters at Lincoln University. Those who choose to “Go Global” will remain enrolled at their home university and continue to pay their home university’s fees. Entry requirements The programme is open to both undergraduate and postgraduate students, who can choose from any of the courses on offer at Lincoln University. You are required to study full-time (60 credits per semester) to satisfy Immigration New Zealand requirements.
