The Paris+London program allows Drexel students to experience two European capital cities in one term! Through this unique opportunity, students spend 4 weeks in Paris and 4 weeks in London, taking courses in each city. The Paris+London program is open to all majors, but of particular interest to students desiring to acquire or strengthen French language skills. It is run in partnership with the Ecole Superiere de Commerce Exterieur (ESCE) in Paris and with the Foundation for International Education (FIE) in London.
Paris: Located on the river Seine, Paris has the reputation of being the most beautiful and romantic city in the world, rich with history and remaining vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design. Dubbed the City of Light (la Ville Lumière) and Capital of Fashion, it is home to the world's finest and most luxurious fashion designers and cosmetics. Situated in the heart of Paris, steps away from the Eiffel Tower, Campus Paris Eiffel welcomes French and international students providing the opportunity to study and enhance their marketable skills and transform themselves into the next international leaders.
London: London is undoubtedly one of the world’s greatest cultural and economic centers and has been dubbed as the “coolest city in the world”. The rich history combined with contemporary and multicultural dynamics of the city offer a perfect backdrop for study abroad! Classes in London take place at Foundation House, FIE’s main headquarters and study center, located in South Kensington and just a 10 minute walk from the residence halls. Classes are taught by British faculty.
Orientations: Students will be greeted in both cities by local support staff for orientation, which may include tours, a welcome dinner or other activities.
