Study Abroad and Exchange
The ERASMUS Scheme
The ERASMUS scheme, which is part of the European Union's Lifelong Learning Programme (replacing SOCRATES), exists to promote study abroad, principally within the European Union. In Music the period abroad is usually taken in the second year, and may last one or two terms.Our current partner institutions are:

Greece:
The Erasmus scheme in Music is co-ordinated by Dr Thomas Simaku (tel ext 4448). Further detailed information about this scheme is available from the University International Office.
Outside Europe
The University has a number of links with institutions across the world, which offers a number of students the opportunity to spend some part of their degree overseas, in North America, Asia and Australia. Further details of these institutions and the relevent exchange schemes can be found on the webpages of the University International Office.
York is the perfect environment to explore and grow for three years, both musically and personally. Performance, academia and composition are all equally valued. There are endless amounts of singing opportunities if you wish to make the most of your time here.
