Description

Learn how the principles of Psychology apply in different cultures while living in London! This program allows students to experience British culture while offering two courses that are not available on the Tallahassee campus. Both of these courses count as 4000-level electives that can fulfill either psychology major or minor requirements. In addition to classroom meetings, the program leader will accompany students on planned excursions in London, one of the most vibrant and multicultural cities in the world. Excursions may include such locations of general cultural interest as Canterbury, Leeds Castle, the Globe Theatre to see a Shakespeare performance and other locations in London. Additional excursions may include visits to sites of particular relevance to the specific courses offered by the program.

Admission Prerequisite and Priorities: Students must have completed General Psychology (with a C- or better) by the time of application submission. Priority will be given to students who have already been formally admitted to the upper division psychology major, and who are in good standing, followed by lower division psychology majors. Non-psychology majors will be considered if seats remain.

Eligibility
This program is open to all undergraduate psychology majors, as well as majors from other programs. (See Program Admission Prerequisite and Priorities information above. Psychology Department and International Programs will jointly approve applications for this program.)
