Teaching Methods
- All courses on the Semester in Europe program are University of Nicosia courses taught by University of Nicosia faculty using University of Nicosia syllabi on the University of Nicosia campus. The University of Nicosia issues the transcript for this program.
- Courses are taught on an intensive schedule and meet for approximately 5 hours per week for the eight weeks that students are in Cyprus for a total of 42 hours of classroom contact hours.
- Students complement their in-class instruction with 35 days of on-the-ground travel to key political, economic and cultural institutions in 12 EU countries. We endeavor to have relevant experts leading these sessions and, additionally, provide guides for general city and sightseeing tours.
- While the travel portion is a required part of this program and linked to the curriculum, it is not-for-credit.
