Eight CAS students are among 56 participating in the Nebraska at Oxford program July 21-Aug. 17 in Oxford, England, a 31-year collaboration between Nebraska and the University of Oxford’s Jesus College.

The program, sponsored by the College of Business, is open to all undergraduate students with a minimum 2.5 GPA. Business students take two lecture-tutorial courses on British political and international economic policy for six hours of academic credit at Nebraska. Non-business students can enroll in a course on the literature of William Shakespeare. Lecturers for the courses are world-renowned faculty from the University of Oxford.

Students also immerse themselves in English culture, visiting historical sites such as Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of Shakespeare; having high tea at the Old Parsonage Hotel; and partaking in the horse races at Sandown Racecourse.
