Three great cities and three of the world’s finest
universities are the foundation of this program. You
will be surrounded by history and tradition as you travel
through England and Ireland.
Join us for an enriching and exciting month in the hallowed
halls of these famous universities and cosmopolitan
cities.
London
Our tale of three cities will begin with five nights in London
in the heart of Kensington as we take up residence at Imperial
College. From there we will explore by foot or by chartered
bus all that London has to offer, including St.
Paul's and Westminster Cathedrals, the Tower
of London, the Houses
of Parliament, and much more. Students can enjoy a night
of theatre, visits to the National
Portrait Gallery, and concerts in Hyde
Park.
Oxford
Our next stop will be Oxford, where we will have the privilege
of staying at St.
Hilda’s College, Oxford University. From there we
will be steps from the University’s galleries, museums
and libraries, as well as the River Cherwell and Christ Church
Meadows.
Dublin
A short flight across the Irish Sea will take us to Dublin
and the magnificent Trinity
College Dublin in the heart of the city. Trinity has a
history that goes back to the 15th Century, with famous
alumni like Burke,
Locke,
and Yeats.
After taking our morning classes in the college, we will spend
our afternoons exploring the city, with free entry to over
30 of Dublin's attractions.
A night at the Abbey
Theatre and a final banquet will be just two of the highlights
of our immersion in Ireland as we fall in love with the country.
