This Program Was Amazing! Past Review

The Health Practice and Policy program through IES Abroad in London was such an amazing opportunity. The courses that I took were relevant to my major and I gained some important skills while studying abroad. Not only did I learn from the academics during the semester, I also learned so much while experiencing the culture in London. The faculty and staff at IES Abroad London are extremely welcoming and helpful. Whether you had an issue with a course or a question about getting around the city, they were always happy to take the time and talk with you. I was able to experience so many new things through this program including: taking a course at Oxford University, doing a service learning placement at a homeless shelter in South London, and making friends from all over the world. The field trips and group outings offered to students were both engaging and fun, they helped give us students an understanding of the local culture. I do not think it is an overstatement to say that studying in London changed my outlook, and I would definitely recommend this program to any health studies majors interested in learning about international health systems and policies.
