If you have to move away from UEA, for 2 weeks or more, as part of your studies, UEA needs to let UK Visas and Immigration know your new address.
You may be away from UEA for a number of reasons, including:
Field work (but not a field trip of 2 weeks or less)

This could be in the UK, abroad or at your family home.
