Courses Fall 2010

Grinnell-in-London courses may be used for major credit or for cognate credit toward the major in a number of departments. According to college policy you may earn a maximum of 16 credits on the GIL program toward graduation, but the Board recommends that you enroll for 14 credits if you can continue normal progress toward graduation by doing so.

During Phase 1 (9 weeks), students take a number of classes with a requirement of enrolling in at least 8 credits in this phase. During Phase 2 (6 weeks), students take only one, or in the case of a non-Parliamentary internship, participate in the internship (4 credits) and the course Understanding Work in the UK (2 credits). Students should consult with their major advisers to determine which courses will count toward their major.
