Join us for a fascinating evening showcasing stories of ‘Encounter and Transformation’ as we dive deep into the far-reaching personal and professional impact of the Year Abroad. This distinctive and foundational element of the MMLL tripos expands knowledge and skills while offering the joy of discovering new geographical and cultural landscapes. It challenges students' assumptions, broadens their ambitions, and refines their plans for the future. Our aim is to ensure that future generations of Cambridge students, regardless of background or circumstances, can fully benefit from the Year Abroad experience.

The event will feature stories of transformation from current students and a lively panel discussion with notable alumni who will share how the Year Abroad influenced their career paths and discuss both expected and unforeseen outcomes of this unique opportunity provided by the MMLL degree.

Running order:

5.30pm - Drinks reception

6:00pm - Student presentations and panel discussion

7:00pm - Reception

8:00pm - Event close

We look forward to seeing you there!
