Study
With FIE London you can pursue studies for just about any major imaginable. Students can choose from over 30 electives from these options:
Unless otherwise specified by their home institution, most students in London enroll in one of FIE's Key Courses, which analyze British life through a particular lens (Business, Culture, Europe, or Visual Media). In these courses, students contextualize their experience in London. Students participating in the Study & Internship or Study & Service Internship programs will be enrolled in a corresponding Experiential Education Course.
KEY COURSES (Choose one per semester):
Study + Internship
If you think that you can combine professional development with new career options (and a few fish and chips on the side), you’ve come to the right place.
Fast-track your career in almost any field as you level-up with an international internship in London. Beyond impressive resume/CV additions, new office-friendly skills, and professional connections that’ll benefit your career loooooong after you return home, an international internship in London with FIE will stretch your comfort zone, deepen your understandings of the global marketplace, and inspire your future vocation.
Your studies are paired with an FIE internship placement at a small-to-medium sized London company. Classes include your International Internship Course (IIC), which integrates your internship with classroom seminars — the perfect setting for reflecting and analyzing your work experience. You will also take an FIE Key Course and can sign up for optional electives (depending on your program term).
