About Us

The British Studies Program, made possible in large part by the Gordon B. Hinckley Endowment in British Studies, is housed in the College of Humanities.

Key elements of the current program include an Interdisciplinary Minor in British Studies, a London Study Abroad Summer Program, the annual Gordon B. Hinckley Lecture in British Studies, and the Gordon B. Hinckley Professorship in British Literature and Culture

The goal of British Studies is to provide students with the opportunity to obtain a broadly-based, multi-faceted understanding of the culture and society of Great Britain and the former colonies of the British Empire.  To this end, British Studies promotes interdisciplinary study across six departments (English, Film, History, Philosophy, Political Science, and Theatre); summer study abroad in London on a variety of topics; and public lectures by distinguished scholars.
