OPPORTUNITIES FOR WORKING ABROAD
The CUSAFE committee is often asked whether the society runs overseas
placements for students. We don't, unfortunately. However, we have
obtained a list of those organisations which run voluntary placements
of roughly suitable lengths (ie up to 3/4 months). We hope this
will be of some use to our members.
