ISEP (International Student Exchange Program) Exchange:
As part of your internal application for an additional year abroad, you can list ISEP as one of your preferred choices. Begin by exploring the ISEP Minisite and using the ISEP Program Finder to research possible destinations; make sure to apply the 'ISEP Exchange' filter to tailor your search and your field of study. Please be aware that ISEP Direct is not available.
- Additional year - All Physics students can go abroad for an additional year to study at one of York's partner universities. Depending on your destination, you can choose to take taught modules or undertake an immersive research project at one of our specialised departmental partner universities. MPhys students go abroad after their third year; BSc students go after their second year.
