The 2010 Schieffer School in London Program

 Throughout the Schieffer School of Journalism, students can find fliers and posters about studying abroad in London this upcoming summer. The 2010 London Summer Program is scheduled for June 6 – June 30. London is considered to be an international center for communication, culture, and commerce.

Dr. John Tisdale and Dr. Catherine Coleman are the head faculty traveling to London with the students. Students are able to take two classes while abroad in London: Research and Evaluation: Cross-Cultural and International Exploration and Media and Britain. Not only are students given the opportunity to live in London, the group will take a trip to Paris. Students will take trips to the Associated Press, the BBC,the CBS News London Bureau. Dr. Tisdale and Dr. Coleman will also schedule various trips to advertising agencies and public relations firms for the students to tour.

Study abroad is a great way for students to experience a new culture, make new friends, and learn more about job opportunities all while gaining class credit.
