London - Short term courses
The University of Houston-Victoria, along with its
consortium partners, is excited to announce our study abroad
program in London, England. Each year we will arrange for
students to study in the heart of one of the most exciting
cities in the world. Undergraduate as well as graduate level
courses will be offered. All classes will be a six credit
hour course with three hours awarded for lecture and three
hours for individual research. Classes will be small and
include a mixture of lecture, guest lecture, field
experience, and individual research. Credit hours will be
awarded by Midwestern State University and will be
transferred to the student's home institution.
Semester Program (4 weeks)
Each student will take one class and
receive six credit hours. Classes will operate on a seminar
style format with all students actively participating in
discussions with their professor as well as the numerous
guest lecturers. Each lecture will be a supplemented with a
field experience that will add practical application to the
issues that have been raised in class. Students enrolling in
a class will be provided with a syllabus before they leave
the United States. Research projects or papers will be
completed upon return to the U.S. and sent to the professor
of record for a final grade. Lecture and research must both
be completed for a student to receive a final grade.
Although each class schedule will
ultimately rest with the professor of record, classes will
typically run Monday through Thursday. Class attendance in
all classes and class related activities is mandatory and
excessive absences may result in dismissal from the program.
A mini-break during the session will allow students to
travel throughout England & Western Europe.
