Study Abroad with Hansard Scholars Programme
"I worked in Parliament, so my resume is much better now."
Zachary J Wilkes Brandeis University
"I gained many different professional skills in terms of dealing with people with a different background than I, and working through any stereotypes that may or may not come with it. I got professional experience in an international political system. I learned how to survive and live on my own (with assistance if needed) and grew..."
Samantha Barrett Brandeis University
"I was looking for a study abroad program that allowed me to immerse myself in a foreign political system, and this program provided me exactly that! Working in parliament was one of the most exciting experiences of my life, and I was able to learn an incredible amount about the history of the UK political system, and how we got ..."
A student Brandeis University
"I gained insight into the workings of UK Parliament which is worthwhile for anyone interested in political systems. "
A student Brandeis University
"Yes! "
A student Brandeis University
"Far too much about the UK's political process."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about British politics and the way the British government functions, especially in during Brexit."
A student Brandeis University
"It was certainly worthwhile for the public policy experience alone. "
Benjamin S Brandeis University
"I learned more about myself than about anything else. I learned I truly am passionate about politics, and that I can achieve anything I set my mind to."
A student Brandeis University
"So much about British politics in general. "
Shaquan M Brandeis University
"Budgeting is key, and London is expensive"
A student Brandeis University
"Despite issues such as money and free time, I would consider my time abroad life altering. The general experience of learning to live in a foreign country is not something you can pass up. This is not dependent on a specific program, however. "
Andrew S Brandeis University
"Learned a lot about British democracy, but also about myself: how to manage an office environment and conflicts, how to stay self-disciplined and motivated, and how to live to a new city."
A student Brandeis University
"I have a passion for Public Health Policy and because of the opportunities given to me by my position in parliament I want to make a career out of improving people's access to public health."
James C Brandeis University
"This experience was incredibly worthwhile. I gained the internship experience of working in the House of Lords and also just the experience of studying in London - and perhaps most importantly from my perspective, the personal growth to be able to do things on my own, such as travel, study, and other experiences."
A student Brandeis University
"Intense knowledge of UK/EU politics, first-hand experience in parliament."
mhgross Brandeis University
"I learned about myself. And it was absolutely worthwhile"
Andrew B University of Wisconsin - Madison
"I learned a lot about the British political culture and how it contrasts with the american climate. It was definitely worthwhile, having gone through the programme I can now safely consider myself the most knowledgeable person on British politics. "
A student Saint Olaf College
"I am confident that I will never have such an amazing experience at an internship again. Working for a Member of Parliament was incredible and the experiences I had were well worth it. "
David F Tufts University
"I definitely appreciated the entire experience more when I was home. Although at the time it was stressful working a 9am-6pm internship while taking classes, looking back, I am so glad I chose Hansard. "
A student Brandeis University
"Yes. Living in London was awesome. More importantly I spent a month backpacking europe which was amazing and would have been impossible if I stayed at home. The three stars doesn't include the backpacking its a combo of two star program(only because of the internship) and four for living in London."
Kevin G Presbyterian College
"Not only do I understand the British political system far better, but my Hansard experience also allowed me to understand the American political system by providing something to compare it to. I gained a lot of independence and confidence from my semester abroad. "
Dina F Goucher College
