ABOUT THE LOCATION. Exploring London, getting a taste of the British
experience and a sense of history are as much a part of this study abroad
program as is the course work. The center of the London Study Program
is Marian Kennedy Fischer Hall at Trafalgar Square. It features several
classrooms, two major libraries, four state-of-the-art computer clusters,
Internet and local network access in every room, a common room, faculty
and administrative offices, a gallery, and private residences. It is less
than a 10-minute walk from theatres, art galleries, financial institutions,
and colleges of the University of London.
FALL Program. Currently 150
juniors from a variety of colleges within the University participate in
the London Program. Courses are taught by Notre Dame faculty as well as
faculty from the University of London and other British universities.
During the fall semester engineering students can fulfill both college
and university requirements with their London work; special care is taken
to guarantee that they continue to make appropriate progress toward their
degrees. A major component of the program is for all students to experience
the fine and performing arts in London. This includes attending at least
nine theatrical, musical, or dance productions and becoming familiar with
London's museums. http://www.nd.edu/~intlstud/locations/uk/london.html

SUMMER PROGRAM. The Summer Engineering Program offers all students
in the College of Engineering an enriching educational experience in
a foreign study environment
as well as an opportunity to experience the globalization of industry
and the impact of multinational corporation operations on U.S. engineers.
The six-week program consists of two three-credit courses taught by
regular Notre Dame faculty and field trips to significant engineering
projects.
Classes meet four days a week, leaving weekends available for travel in
the British Isles or on the continent.
