Student life
Studying at Forward College is a unique chance for students to step out of their comfort zone and engage with local communities and different cultures. Our students, representing 33 nationalities, live together in dedicated student residences to nurture a rich community life where it’s easy to make friends.
Our programme is designed to nurture students’ curiosity, enrich their understanding, and help them build bridges across different contexts. These skills will be an asset as they take their next steps in today’s globalised living, socialising, and working environments.
Through dedicated intercultural classes, learning expeditions, cultural activities with a local focus, conferences, and real-world project work, students will be encouraged to engage with the contexts in which they will be living for a year.
Additionally, they will have the opportunity to be involved in student governance committees and in the creation of student clubs. These are designed by students and for students to engage in extracurricular activities and range from sports to cultural activities, community service, or learning languages.
