About the Program

There are three courses of study that students can participate in during the summer with FIE! Choose the option that works best for your academic and career goals.

London Summer Study & Internship

Take classes and gain intercultural experience through an internship in one of the most vibrant cities in the world! An international internship provides an opportunity to experience working life in another country and challenges pre-conceived notions of cultures and of the professional world. Take FIE's Key Course, British Life and Cultures, as well as the International Internship Course (IIC). You will begin your internship about a week into the program, splitting each week evenly between class work and placement time. See internship placement areas listed in semester academics above. Available for both Summer Session I & II.

Pages, Stages, Scenes, and Screens: British Culture from Shakespeare to Modern Media

This 5-week summer program explores British culture from Shakespearean times until modern day! Use London as your classroom during co-curricular activities around the city to historical and cultural sites such as Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, or Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. There are three courses offered to students on the Pages, Stages, Scenes, and Screens program: British Life and Visual Media, Photojournalism: London through the Lens, and Shakespeare and Elizabethan Literature. The students will take 2 of these 3 courses and are asked to list them in order of preference on application. It may be that not all three courses run; hence, courses are determined by student preference
