Maryland in London

Have you ever considered studying abroad in London?
Maryland-in-London offers you the opportunity to incorporate study abroad into your four-year plan, ensuring your time in the UK keeps you on track for graduation. A highlight for Anthropology students is ‘Social Anthropology of Britain’, which fulfils major degree requirements and gives unprecedented access to the diverse and comprehensive amenities of the city. You’ll explore ways of life in Great Britain; conduct fieldwork in London and Cambridge; and complete your own ethnographic project on a topic of your choice. Courses in Art History, Economics, English Literature, Government & Politics, History and Theatre are also available.

The program encourages students to engage with local people and culture. In addition to Maryland courses, you may take one class with British students at the prestigious local partner institution, Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). QMUL is ranked in the top 10 of UK universities and it has over 150 courses in a variety of subjects on offer each semester. Alternatively, step beyond the classroom and add an exciting academic work placement (internship) to your registration. A wide range of placement areas are available for students to choose from, including various business sectors, not-for-profit, political, public sector and creative organizations.

Applications are now open for the spring of 2016 and are reviewed on a rolling admissions basis until the deadline on October 1st.
