Bucknell in London
Bucknell in London
The Bucknell in London program, offered in the fall and spring semesters, is open to qualified sophomores, juniors and seniors. Second semester sophomores may also apply with special permission from the appropriate dean. Students take a combination of courses taught by Bucknell University faculty and by a program provider. Courses take full advantage of the program's British location, with London as the classroom lab. Single and multi-day academic excursions to sites in London and beyond engage students in the cultural, historical, political and social issues of the city and region. Housed in flats in central London, students experience this cosmopolitan city like Londoners.
Each semester, a different Bucknell professor leads the program and teaches a core course in their field. In addition, British faculty teach a variety of courses in social sciences and humanities, such as Theatre in London, the History of London, which satisfy a number of college general education requirements.
