Semester in London: Business
Curriculum and Faculty
Overview Students on this semester abroad program will choose 4 courses (modules) from a wide range of business subjects that are taught at London Metropolitan University, one of the largest public universities in London. London Met has over 3,000 faculty teaching 34,000 students from 150 countries in two locations in central London. Most students will be based at the Islington campus, in the middle of a vibrant and youthful part of London.
Students are direct-enrolled in modules with regular students from
London Met. You should be capable of independent academic study, as the British academic model places more responsibility on the student to stay current with the module syllabus.
There is also an option to substitute one of the 4 modules with an internship that is coordinated by London Metropolitan University. Please see below for more details.
