Program Structure
You’ll enroll in a total of 4 courses at LSBU, but please note that at least 2 courses have to be from the same school. The academic structure below lists a small sample of the hundreds of courses available. You will have access to introductory, intermediate and advanced courses in a variety of subject areas. See below for information how to access LSBU’s Course (Module) Directory for a full list of courses.
Generally, courses are worth 4 credits in the U.S. semester system. Semester students may earn 16 credits (up to 240 contact hours).
The number of contact hours for each course varies and may be comprised of lectures, seminars, and tutorials. Due to differences in the British higher education system, there is no standard for the number of days a week a course may meet. Class meeting times vary across departments and subject areas.
Prior to departure you will select your preferred courses and enroll in them based on availability. LSBU course lists and schedules are not finalized until you’re in London. Final course registration takes place onsite. Please understand course availability is subject to change and courses are not guaranteed. It is in your best interest to get several course alternates approved by your home university prior to your departure date. This will give you flexibility during registration. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.
Please be aware that the university final exam period runs past the CEA program dates. Therefore, it is your responsibility to arrange an alternate due date or assessment, if necessary, with your instructor. We recommend speaking about this with your instructor before the end of the add/drop period onsite.

Navigating the London South Bank University Website for Courses
Please follow this link to view LSBU’s Course (Module) Directory. This is updated regularly by LSBU to reflect the most current information regarding which courses are scheduled to run. As such, it is highly subject to change. Each course is posted with a short course description. To request syllabi, please contact us.
When viewing this directory, please keep in mind the following:
- Fall semester = Semester 1; courses in this term are listed in the top half of the directory.
- Spring semester = Semester 2; courses are listed in the bottom half of the directory.
- At LSBU, modules are validated at a level corresponding to a particular year of study. The levels are as follows:
- Level 4, which is equivalent to the 1st year of an undergraduate degree
- Level 5, which is equivalent to the 2nd year of an undergraduate degree
- Level 6, which is equivalent to the 3rd year of an undergraduate degree
Some modules at Level 5 and Level 6 may have pre-requisites requiring students to have already completed specific modules or equivalents at a lower level. As a study abroad student, you are not expected to have taken the specific pre-requisite requirement, but you must have studied a relevant or similar course/module in your home country/institution.
- Use the tabs at the bottom of the document to navigate the different schools/fields.
- Note: CEA students may not have access to all courses listed.
- LSBU requires that you select a "home" school and select at least two courses from there
- Please disregard the semester dates listed; they do not reflect CEA’s program dates.
- The day/time information for each class is listed only for reference. This information is highly subject to change and should not be relied upon when selecting your classes.
- Classes that have a stronger possibility of being cancelled will be marked as “optional” in the “Pre-requisites and Notes” column.
- Depending on the time of year, the directory may either display the course information for the previous or upcoming academic year. Typically, the term years are refreshed in June each year.
- Internship students: If you are participating in the internship program, you will be required to enroll in the mandatory “Internship Seminar” course.
If you have further questions regarding how to select courses or about the CEA program at London South Bank University please contact a CEA Enrollment Advisor.
