Courses in all academic areas are taught by British faculty specifically to students enrolled in the Boston University program. Upon successful completion of a semester, students earn 16 Boston University credits. During the first five weeks of the program students take one core course in their academic area to prepare for the internship experience and one elective course. Each student also meets with an internship advisor to refine his or her an area of placement according to ability, professional goals, experience, and work habits. During the final eight weeks, students participate in London's local work life through assigned internships that complement their particular academic concentration.
Students work full-time, four days a week, while also enrolling in a related, weekly seminar course.
