BYU London Centre Winter
Priority Deadline: 1 September 2025
Application Deadline: 1 October 2025
Join us for a semester of delicious food, beautiful art, and great literature as we examine the role of creativity and collaboration in building culture and knowledge in the United Kingdom. With a food scientist and a creative writer as your guide, you’ll get a hands-on taste of how culture and knowledge build on one another. We’ll visit the museums and theaters of London, the literary and wild spaces of Scotland and the Lake District, the lush dairy lands of Ireland, and the poetic landscapes of Wales; we’ll tour food manufacturing facilities big and small, cook with local chefs, and get a behind-the-scenes look at food culture in one of the most diverse cities in the world. We’ll chart the history and impact of famous British foods such as Cadbury chocolate, fish and chips, and chicken tikka masala (yes, that’s British food), and learn about the chemical building blocks that comprise our food. We will retrace the steps of many of the great artists, writers, scientists and thinkers who have called the British Isles home and reflect on the role of creative collaboration in artistic and scientific discovery as we engage in our own creative, critical, and scientific projects.
