Credits:

Participants in the Brockport/University of Warwick Program will normally earn four credit hours for each course successfully completed at the University of Warwick, for a maximum of sixteen credits per semester.

Curriculum:

Participants in the Brockport/University of Warwick Program will select (prior to departure) courses from the more than 900 courses available to study abroad students at the University of Warwick. All instruction in the Brockport/University of Warwick Program is by University of Warwick faculty.

Participants in the Brockport/University of Warwick Program are examined in the same manner (and to the same standard) as their British counterparts and classmates. The majority of courses in which they will enroll are examined formally at the end of year and in order to be awarded credit, participants must take -and pass-the examination at the end of the study period in question. Part year students may be assessed by written pieces of work rather than examinations. Most students follow four courses per year. Junior year abroad students are attached to one department as a "base" department for academic counseling purposes, but other courses may be chosen from the whole range of those listed in the Handbook. Some departments may accept applications from students wishing to study for less than a year, but course choice may be more limited.

Warwick's Business School has been accredited by AACSB for the past ten years, which includes all courses in business and management offered at the University of Warwick. The University of Warwick is the first Business School in the United Kingdom, and only the third in Europe, to be AACSB accredited at this time.

The following list is intended to illustrate the scope of courses, subjects and disciplines available to study abroad students at the University of Warwick. As is the case on your campus, not all courses will be offered each year and/or semester, but the vast majority will. The University of Warwick's website is: http://www.warwick.ac.uk.
