Description

Lexia's academically challenging Semester and Academic Year Programs is composed of several courses, some of which run concurrently, while others follow in a sequence. Some of the basic courses of the program are: 1) British Life and Culture introduces students to the United Kingdom and to London to its history, politics, economics, geography and culture; 2) Multiculturalism and Global Dimension introduces students to London as a historically cosmopolitan city 3) a Research Methods Seminar; and 4) an individualized Field Research Project (FRP). The FRP is an opportunity to design an independent study project which focuses directly on a subject area within a student's academic major or minor.
