USF Honors in Exeter Semester |
|
Spend a semester with your fellow USF Honors College Students at one of the world's top universities. Students will participate on this semester program as a cohort, taking one USF class taught on-site by a USF professor and three classes (or modules) taught by faculty from the University of Exeter. Students may select from subjects across Exeter's catalog allowing you the maximum flexibility to meet your degree requirements while engaging with local and international students.
All students will participate in one (or both) of two USF faculty-led courses. Registration will be handled by the Honors College. Each course may count for graduation requirements in a number of ways, please work with your Honors Advisor to select the most appropriate combination:
IDH 3100 / 4200 / 4950: Wander: Perception, Understanding, and Improvisation
IDH 3600 / 4200 / 4950: Flourishing: Cultivating Persons, Cultures, & Environments of Well-being
The health and well-being of our students is our primary concern and we continue to monitor and make contingency plans for our programs in the current, unpredictable environment. Please note, that as a result, program itineraries and schedules may change with little or no notice as we adjust to make our programs as safe as possible. For more information please see our COVID-19 FAQ. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us!
Covid-19 Vaccination Notification: As of the posting of this message, the host country or host provider does not require proof of vaccination to participate on this program. However, USF does not have control over the requirements of a foreign government or other organization so this may change with little or no notice. It is the recommendation of the Education Abroad Office that students seek out vaccination prior to participation to avoid last minute complications. Should a country or provider change their requirements, this may mean you will be denied boarding of your flight, entry into country at immigration abroad, housing, and/or access to public spaces in-country. Please note, as this is not a USF requirement, USF is not responsible for verifying your vaccination status prior to travel. If you commit to this program and later withdraw due to the vaccination status, you will be subject to financial penalties as described by your terms and conditions.
Based in and around the City of Exeter — the college town of JK Rowling and a city with Medieval and Roman roots . "The city of Exeter, with a population of about 122,000 is a student-friendly city which combines modern life with a sense of the past. Cafes, restaurants, pubs and modern shops mix easily with historic buildings, including the Cathedral, which was consecrated in 1133 and rebuilt in the late medieval period, the Guildhall is the oldest civic working building in the country, Mol's coffee house and the Ship Inn, both favourite haunts of Sir Francis Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh. Exeter is consistently ranked one of the best places to live in the UK." -Information courtesy of the University of Exeter?
