Overview
Eligible Birmingham Dubai undergraduates can spend their second year on exchange at the University of Birmingham's Edgbaston campus in the UK through Go Global.
Complete opportunity details
The current Go Global page lists the Dubai to UK Exchange Year as a standing mobility route for eligible undergraduate students. The Dubai FAQ states that students normally need 60% across two semesters in Year 1. Some programmes have an additional 20% cohort threshold, while several programmes are currently excluded because they are not offered at Edgbaston. Current students discover options and apply through the University's Go Global Canvas course. The International Student Team provides visa support for the UK exchange year.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be current undergraduate students at the Dubai campus on an eligible programme. The current FAQ requires 60% over two Year-1 semesters; BSc Computer Science, BSc Artificial Intelligence & Computer Science, and certain MEng Computer Science & Software Engineering applicants also face a 20% cohort threshold. Programme exclusions shown for incoming 2026/27 students apply.
