Description:
| Harlaxton College is the British campus of the University of Evansville,a study abroad site for students currently enrolled in American Colleges and Universities who wish to spend a semester or a five week summer session studying in Britain. Harlaxton is two things: a self-contained study abroad campus of the University of Evansville in southern Indiana and a 100-room Grade I listed Victorian manor house in the English Midlands. The manor features a Great Hall, a Long Gallery, a Conservatory, and a Cedar Staircase among other beautiful architectural features. All courses are U.S. accredited; students may enroll in 12-18 hours in the semester or 3 - 6 hours in a summer session. Classes are taught by British and visiting American faculty. Many classes focus on the United Kingdom, including the required (for semester students) British Studies class (6 hours), an interdiscipinary course taught by British faculty in the fields of art history, history, literature, and political science. There are numerous travel opportunities, including optional trips for an extra cost, organised by Harlaxton, scheduled throughout the semester - destinations include: London, Edinburgh, Bath, Cambridge, York, North Wales, Ireland, Paris and Italy. Many students also travel on their own throughout the British Isles, Europe and further afield. Harlaxton has substantial travel information resource. A major advantage of Harlaxton is that classes are usually small and many of the professors live on campus, students are therefore able to meet and discuss issues with their professors more readily. Further, Harlaxton has a Dean and Assistant Dean of Students to help students adjust and enjoy their study abroad experience. Harlaxton is a blend of the two systems, American and British.
