Description

The Tulane Program offers five courses on European Union law and the theme of comparisons between European and U.S. law. The curriculum provides opportunities to learn from and interact with Cambridge and U.S. faculty with transnational interests, experiences, and contacts. Each course reflects the expertise of the individual faculty members and students will have the opportunity to engage in dialogue with them, both in and out of class.

Highlights

Some of the sample activities that can take place during the program are a discussion about the British system of legal education by Professor Barnard; a tour of Trinity College and a tour to the Crown Court, Cambridge, UK.

Program Fees Include:

Tuition
Tuition is 2,400 USD for enrollment in up to three one-hour courses in the program. Course materials are included in the tuition fee.

If, after you send in your application and tuition deposit of 500 USD, you decide to withdraw; your tuition will be refunded less the deposit if we receive written notice of your withdrawal two weeks prior to the start date of your program. You must submit in writing, to Academic Affairs, your intentions to withdraw. Oral notification will not be accepted. Written notification to anyone other than Academic Affairs will not constitute as a withdrawal. After the deadline listed above and prior to the start of the program we will refund the tuition minus the 500 USD deposit only due to extenuating circumstances. No housing fees will be refunded.

Students will be provided with a free electronic version and free printed copies of all materials used in the courses. The printed copies will be available upon arrival in Cambridge.

Housing

Trinity College offers attractive single occupancy rooms in the modernized Blue Boar Building, which were highly regarded by all students in the 2011 summer program. Students can start using their rooms on Sunday, July 1st, 2012. The room fee is 1,500 USD. The rooms are single occupancy only. Students are allowed to locate their own housing in Cambridge if they wish, but it is much more expensive. In addition, Trinity College will charge students who do not reside in the college an additional fee of about 38 USD to cover the computer, library, and other services they will be providing. For those who reside in the college, this fee is part of the 1,500 USD room fee. While the rooms at Trinity are well ventilated and the weather is usually cool at night, there is no air conditioning. We need to know as soon as possible (and in any case by April 30) whether you want to stay outside of the Trinity dorms. Please select your housing choice on your Summer Abroad Application. Unless we hear from you to that effect, you will be charged for your room through Tulane's Accounts Receivable billing system.
