Virtual program in London
Students apply their coursework as they travel virtually to London and learn about the rich history, politics, and culture of this cosmopolitan city. This program brings students to outstanding museums such as the Tate Modern and the British Museum and engages them with local students and professors. Furthermore, we arrange custom visits related to their field. The group celebrates their hard work with a cooking workshop and program recap in a farewell event.
