## Overview

Thinking about a master's in the UK? This 9-day, 8-night study tour lets undergraduates in China see eight UK universities for themselves before they apply — from Birmingham, Coventry and Leicester to Cambridge, UCL, Reading, Surrey and Queen Mary University of London — and get a feel for subject strengths, campus life and the student experience.

At the heart of the tour are two days and eight hours of AI business classes in Cambridge. No coding background is needed: students learn how AI is applied in business and consumer insight, work through case discussions and marketing experiments, then design an AI service idea in teams and pitch it. Two nights near Cambridge, punting on the Cam, a formal dinner and time in London round out the experience.
