The History of British Philosophy in Cambridge offers students the exciting opportunity to study the development of intellectual thought in the UK from the seventeenth century to the twentieth century. Students will study this development on the exact site at which the relevant philosophers composed their work. Moreover, students will take trips to London, Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon, Windsor, Warwick, and other places to see some of the world's greatest sites and treasures. Classes meet at Homerton College, part of the University of Cambridge, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday mornings, and field trips take place on Thursdays and Fridays. Courses are taught by UW Oshkosh Professor Dr. Larry Carlin. Weekends are free for students to explore the cultural setting on their own. The University of Cambridge operates on what is known as the 'collegiate' system. All students at the University of Cambridge must be members of a College (though College here has a different meaning than "College" at UW Oshkosh). The University is responsible for the administration of the courses of study which lead to the award of degrees, and the Colleges provide for students' other needs such as living arrangements and social activities, as well as facilities. For more information, attend a meeting specifically related to this program on one of the following dates: Wednesday, October 17, 4 PM, Polk 20Friday, November 16, 4 PM, Polk 20 Updated information is now available for this program at http://www.uwosh.edu/oie/abroad/cambridge.php .

For information on what these program fees cover and for an estimate of other expenses associated with the trip (e.g. passport fees, meal costs, etc.), seehttp://www.uwosh.edu/oie/abroad/cambridge.php#fees .
