Just(us) Talk: How to Cope with Cultural Shock and Homesickness?

Moving abroad for your studies may be both an exciting and challenging experience, particularly if you are a first-year international student who has never lived abroad before. Beyond the textbooks and cultural differences lies a huge emotional experience – studying in a different country with an entirely different culture can give you a culture shock as well as make you miss home.

However, these challenges do not have to outweigh the benefits that come with studying abroad. Join us online at this month's Just(us) Talk, to explore how you can cope with the top challenges of studying abroad and share your experiences with your fellow students.
