Moving abroad: Relocating from the US to the UK

An ebook for American Academics looking for work in the UK

If you are an academic there are many reasons why working in another country might seem very attractive.

This section discusses general reasons for wishing to work abroad before going on to examine the specifics that might attract US citizens to work in Britain

This ebook explores the advantages and challenges facing academics from the United States when they are considering including top tips to help you to maximise your chances in the UK academic job market. This ebook will cover:

  • Reasons why working overseas might be good for you personally and for your career
  • Differences between the two academic systems. The US and the UK may share the same language, but university life in the two countries is very different and our ebook will help to orient you through these differences
  • Practical challenges faced by those moving to another country for work
  • Interviews with scholars who have made this transition provide case studies.

We hope that you find this ebook useful and that it helps you to decide whether or not to make that move.
