You'll enroll in 1 internship seminar course that includes an academic seminar course, an internship placement, and 1 culturally-focused elective course.
Your internship seminar meets for 30 seminar hours and you'll be required to work approximately 130 hours in your placement over the course of the summer, which equates to approximately 20 hours per week.” Together, your seminar and internship placement are worth 4 credits. Courses at LSBU are also worth 4 credits and you may earn 8 credits (up to 166 contact hours).
LSBU courses typically meet several times per week during the summer term and classes are typically held Monday – Friday. Active learning components required by your courses may be scheduled outside of your normal class time throughout the week.
Your internship placement hours take place Monday-Friday; the exact time of day and days of the week will be determined after you arrive. Your work schedule will be structured with limited flexibility.
We strongly recommend you apply as soon as possible, as internship positions are both limited in availability and competitive. Keep in mind employers give priority to those who submit early!
The majority of internships require a video or in-person interview with the employer before placement is confirmed. For students who speak English as a second language, there will be one additional interview to assess English language fluency. All placements will be confirmed upon arrival and will each have their own set of internship guidelines for the position. We’ll do our best, but we can’t guarantee placement at a particular site.
Prior to departure you will select your preferred courses and enroll based on course availability. LSBU course lists and schedules are not finalized until you’re in London. As such, final course registration takes place onsite. It’s critical to understand course availability is subject to change and courses are not guaranteed. It’s 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.
The following courses have been confirmed for this term. Please note, the host institution reserves the right to cancel or change courses without prior notification.
