Study Abroad
BYU London Centre Winter 2027
Dates: 5 January - 12 April 2027 (approx.)
Application Deadline: 1 November 2026
This study abroad program will focus on the relationship between culture, music, and literature through the lens of sound studies. We’ll start with the idea that sound is both an acoustic phenomenon and a means by which we understand and experience the world—the people we meet, the art we experience (whether visual, musical, literary, etc.), and the spaces and places we move through. London will serve as a focal point for this study, a focus supported by its historic place within both British musical and literary history, and its related role in global cultural interaction.

Italy and Greece: Rhetoric, Architecture, and Food: Spring 2027
Dates: 12 May–16 June 2027
Priority Deadline: 1 November 2026
Application Deadline: 1 December 2026
From the ancient city to the kitchen, “Rhetoric, Architecture, and Food” investigates how the preparation of meals, the production of public spaces, and the art of persuasion all helped to shape the classical world. Study during your spring term in Athens and Rome, with on-site lectures that give plenty of time to savor the city without the summertime press of tourists. Good itineraries to Greece and Italy normally hit the highlights, but this exceptional program allows time for exploring and visiting (and revisiting) well beyond the trodden paths—and without the noisy crowds. Did we mention the architecture, the pasta . . . the gelato?
