Courses of Study

During the four-week period, students will take two lecture/tutorial courses concerning British political and international economic policy. "Political Economy of Britain since 1945" traces the development of economic policy in Britain since World War II. Special emphasis is placed on the Thatcher era, Britain and Europe, and the post-Thatcher economy.

"International Economics and Business" covers the British approach to business and economics, including nationalization/privatization, legislation in the United Kingdom, international trade and business. These courses have been approved for six hours of UNL credit as Economics 466 and 467, "Proseminar in International Relations."

Non-business students can enroll in a Theater Arts/Literature course. Credit is given as Theater 398, "The Theater, Arts and Literature of Great Britain." This course concentrates on Shakespeare and the well-known literature of England since the Middle Ages. Lectures and tutors for the two courses are from the Jesus College faculty and staff. Field trips and cultural excursions will supplement the course lectures and tutorials.
