Literature, Adventure and Fun - Great Books at Oxford!
Literary Oxford: An Academic Adventure Abroad
Imagine being able to explore Shakespeare’s Hamlet both on and off the page. As we dive into the influential work of this playwright, students will have the unique experience of visiting Shakespeare’s birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon, and watching as his work is brought to life by the famous Royal Shakespeare Company. This is what makes Great Books @Oxford the academic adventure of a lifetime.
World-Class Academics and Travel
Great Books Summer Program at Oxford combines a world-class academic experience with exciting excursions and tours of must-see destinations in Oxford, London and the English countryside. By focusing our curriculum on great works of British literature, Great Books students get a rich and unique experience as they travel and see England through a literary lens.
