**Each year the Division of Engineering Science sends over 30 enterprising EngSci students abroad to conduct summer research at our partner institutions through the Engineering Science Research Opportunities Program - Global (ESROP - GLOBAL).**
These placements are **arranged by the Division of Engineering Science** and allow students to work alongside leading academics at renowned research facilities around the world. Placements are available in a wide range of engineering disciplines at world-leading universities and institutes in Asia, Europe, and North America.
ESROP - GLOBAL is **open only to EngSci students in Years 1, 2 or 3 of the Engineering Science Program.** The program is extremely popular and competitive, with approximately 200 applicants each year.
In recent years destinations have included Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Germany, Norway, Japan, and Israel.
