Merve Tuna | Part-time International Exec Officer

Hi All!

Welcome to Bournemouth University, where you will feel as if you were home.

I am Merve, the International Students’ Officer at SUBU. My job is to listen, help and direct the international students in order to find solutions to any kind of problem they are facing, organize events for them to social and integrate with all the students in the school, to make sure that their voice is heard, to make them feel home, to help them adapt the new environment and culture and many more.

Feel free to drop me a message at subuexec@bournemouth.ac.uk. I hope you’ll have the time of your life here in Bournemouth!

Study Exchanges

In terms of countries where BU have exchange partnership activity (student and staff) we have links in Europe through Erasmus in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Norway & Turkey.

We also have international (non-EU) exchange links in Australia and Canada.

However, exchanges are School and subject specific so students can only go on an exchange if this is approved for their course.

Students can find further information about study exchange opportunities online through our Study Abroad web page | Click Here
