Study abroad without losing a year.
Take part of your Allied & Healthcare Sciences degree overseas through the university's international office. Two ways to go global: spend a semester abroad with your credits transferring back, or split your degree across two countries on a 2+2 or 1+1 pathway and graduate with an international clinical qualification - across 17+ countries.
Earn a foreign degree
Study partly at Parul, partly abroad, and graduate with a degree from the partner university. B.Optom / BMLS 2+2 and M.Sc / Master's 1+1 clinical pathways across global partner institutions.
One semester abroad - credits transfer
Study a term at a partner university's hospital network or research lab and bring the credits home. No academic loss: you stay on track to graduate on time. Application and registration are supported end-to-end by the international office.
